does anybody have a full write up on how to do a full LED conversion... everything from what LEDs and resistors they used to exactly how to connect it into the power source. I've searched but cant really seem to find a complete step by step with everything. some links or anything would be helpful
thanks

Check the links in my sig, for what I have converted to LEDs.

If you Search for LED Conversion, or LED Mods you will find alot of results.
 






thanks for the help.. im going to radio shack in a little bit if any1 has any recommendations on what i should get to do the interior.. i know these are really bland questions but im also looking for bland answers
thanks for the help
 






My suggestion is is not to go to Radio Shack for LEDs, Buy them on ebay much cheaper and better selection.

very useful. i just did mine in December. john griggs has to be the best link i have seen yet. there was a few things that i did different then him, but followed the same guide line. he doesnt have anything for the door switches. i did mine using 5mm l.e.d.'s and not 3mm. had to do some drilling to the switch, but in the end they worked. plan on spending about 6 hours or so depending on how good you are at soldering on doing all of them. it also doesnt hurt to buy a few extra l.e.d.'s, and a spare set of switches. i am lucky because i was able to test all of them in a parts truck i have sitting in my back yard. in the end, it is well worth it! good luck!
