I did this
http://www.celicatech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4635 finally. I used a 5mm LED instead of a 3mm because Radio Snack didn't have 3mm ones. The 5mm is almost too big but still fit. pics daytime ![]() closer ![]() and in the dark ![]() I likey and the 5mm is very bright. Now everything is blue. -------------------- |

I did mine with a 3mm blue LED a while ago now and it is way too bright. Like at night it can be distracting!
I just did my climate control unit last week and am pleased with the results. I did increase the series resistors on that though so that they aren't stupidly bright. All that's left now is the clock. Gotta find a blue tic tac case.... |

Gotta find a blue tic tac case.... Those plastic folder divider tabs would work well, too although the tic-tac case is thicker plastic. Oh and FYI if you remove the old brownish plastic, you can use it as a template to mold the tic-tac plastic to, just use a hair dryer to warm the new plastic and hold it against the old plastic until it cools. I did this and got the correct tabs and everything to mount my new blue plastic to the clock face and it worked great! -------------------- ![]() |
