Just wondering if anyone has figured out the best option for backlighting the climate control, people have modified the base with a new led, people have just bought those neo wedge based led's, and some people have soldered thier own.
Has anyone tried this with a couple different options? I want a nice looking blue for backlight, i already have blue led's installed for the buttons. How can i accomplish this? im not too worried about light dispersion as long as its semi close to being evenly lit. Thanks guys. |

white is nearly impossible... oils from the hands turn the buttons different colors... you would need to get a unit brand new in order for the buttons to be clear enough for white backlighting... those pictures are starting to look like my units
