So what happened to the guy making the kits for the heater control lights. I need to do my clock and heater controls but don't want to just jump in not knowing what the heck I'm doing. I'd like to change them to blue to match the rest of the interior. Anyone know what type/size the lights are inside there. Oh yeah what type of bulbs are in the ignition key and cigarette lighter ring?

So defgeph, you said that your board has a short in it. Is that something that you messed up on or is there no short at all and could the 12v through the 1.7v LEDs be cauing the LEDs to burn out. That's what I've been able to peice together so far. Sounds like the bulbs with the green caps on them are 12v which would be the reason for no resistors and the other LEDs on the board have resistors so that's why they're not burning out. Assuming I'm correct, which I hardly ever am, you could track the positive trace from the indicator LEDs back to their resistor and look at the colors on the resistor and take the colors up to radio shack and tell them, and if they are competent, they'll be able to tell you exactly what ohm rating you need. Oh yeah almost forgot. the part number for the blue LED you used would be a HUGE help. I'll try and get started on the heater controls today or tomorrow since I'm off work. That way I won't sound like an
