Decided to redo my climate control to my liking.
Very pleased with the turn out
(inspired by cleanSC)

3 T5 blue neo wedge led which lights up the buttons

24 white leds lighting up the lcd

(prior to doing this projects i had never soldered before)

thought might be too bright but wasn't i like it




replaced old leds with blue ones

 

Wow. I like it

 

Nice work, looks good

 

Nice~! Pictures don't do justice, take some better pics.

 

you should write a DIY I'm going to do this along with my cluster!

 

how did you do the LED's looks like a strip of LED ????

 

Freaking awesome.. I took the different route and shipped mine to Lextech. Maybe I should have waited for the DIY on this... NAhhhh... I am very happy with my results.

 

Nice job, looks bright.

 

Nice work making the old style clusters look retro.

 

thanks everyone for the nice words



your right iam not getting good pictures
ive taken a bunch but my crappy camera isn't taking any good ones

here is a little better one

 

i love how the blue LED matches the head unit buttons!

+1000

 

The top LED look is what I have.

 

Do you have part numbers on the LED's and LED Strip? or at least where you picked them up from?

 

t5 neo wedge bulbs for buttons

for the top row just standard led like so the oem ones were 3mm but all i had was 5mm so i made those work(requires soldering)

Wow!! That is a really nice looking climate control. I really like the even lighting across the face of the LCD screen. I did not see any splotches of light concentrating in any one spot like I have seen on some other retrofits.
