I used 3mm LED's when I changed my door lock and window switches.


When you did this, what kind of 3mm LEDs did you use? SMTs, or just regular LEDs? And did you put a resistor in, or just connect the LED directly to the 12v?

Hey dude! How long it take you to make? Would you be willing to make my Limited some LEDs for the puddle light? Yours are way brighter then mine, I would do it my self but its to small and to fine of a job and my left hand is still numb from my crash back in March...

My old plate :) but is not LEDs haha but still very bright...

They are $45 shipped. Since I am not an "ExplorerForum Vendor", I can't talk about sales of them on here. Email me if you are interested. Thanks.
