like said above, just use purple LEDs from ebay or something in the conversion kit instead of blue, red or white.. i'm assuming you're talking about instrument controls, etc inside the cabin, right?

they are actually called UV leds but they shine purple wavelength mostly. just get a bunch cheap on ebay from those overseas places.

you dont do anything to the original led's but break them so they dont work anymore. you have to install and wire up about 36 led's for the conversion. not just soldering **** in. ask gearbox. hes done a 03-05 led conversion.

its easy just solder some led together. if i can do it almost anyone can. you guys make it way too difficult. i think a monkey could almost solder all it takes is two hands and a small brain haha. all you need are the led specs and some resistors and wire.

now what about all of the instrument panel same thing do you have to solder or is it just replacing the bulbs? like the lights for the shifter, ac controls things like that. like i said before i have my car done but i bought mine like that so im not sure how it was done. and if so do you know where i get those lights?

leds for the 03-05 you can buy from ebay. just get some 5mm purple ones. you can buy assloads of them for cheap. 01-02 leds are listed as t1.5mm instrument panel lights or some **** like that from this site. http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b....32127&next=50
