where do you get the AC knobs/panels? the metal ones :-D
also, i see that all the plastic is white in the dash for the lights, so the bulbs must be that off-white color. how would one go about changing them all to blue (im talking about like the AC, CD player, etc--stuff in main chasis) if you take it off is there just one light that reflects against all of them? where do you buy the blue led's?

Depending on what you are working on you would have to change bulbs to led's or colored led's to blue ones....
You can do some searches, there are several posts with pics of the installs along with full instructions.
You can usually pick up the bulbs at your local Radio Shack or some type of electronics store.

Yup.
THe knobs over on Kspec.com are cheap, especially if you just want the OEM ones.
The lighting can all be done, Blacktibs is the man for that. He's sending me all the switches re-done blue and I'm sending him back my stock setups, and the clock. So you can order from him and just swap the parts out sending him back your cores.

this is why I just bought a set of switches off of ebay.. easier and quicker.. and I am gaining the power mirror switch which I do not have... now the question remains.. some tibs have the auto down feature on the driver's side window.. is that built into the switch or is it a relay somewhere else?
i done all my lighting blue....is not so easy... You have to take all switches apart, see what size leds you need, you will need new wiring and a lot of time!! However the result is fantastic (i should post some pics sometime)...lol

Thats the past now, I have kits available so that all you need to do unscrew the 12V bulb out, throw a small LED in its place any color you want, and then snip one wire and add my "resisted wire" by crimping it to the snipped one. Thats it. Took a while but thats the best way, and the easiest. I've tried many others that work, with mad time involoved.
Mad I need you to pm me, I may have a bunch of stuff to just give you man. screw it I'll PM you.
