Blue climate controls done RIGHT!!!
Well I finally had some more time to get the climate controls how I want them, not the crappy fading blue but nice brilliant lighting from the buttons... and then red underneath. It has been a long tedious road but definitely worth it. The picture is here http://greginfinity.tripod.com/led/ but it doesn't really do it justice but you get the idea. A nice mod for those that like tinkering, and a good mod for me to sell to YOU If you want me to do this for you now that I am an expert... let me know and we can figure something out, but I am very pleased with the results!

I had taken apart the climate control area... i found it extremely tricky to open, the first time around.
i was considering changing the little lights in there to blue... just have to figure out how to attach a resistor to the led. I figure i'll try using a 6 volt led, and a 330 ohm resistor. i think it's 330? not sure right now... anywho, nice job looks pretty cool!
curious what mcd's are those blue and red leds? and did you use a resistor and 6 volt or 3 volt leds?

I did mine using the 300 (they were out of 2600 when I went) and it's a little on the dim side, but still readable. I used 4 LEDs so all the buttons are lit. I posted my write-up at http://www.z3d.com/maxima/blueclimate.html
looks nice though, I'm gonna try to switch to the 2600 LEDs when I have the time
