you can sand the leds so they dispurse light a lil more better just sand the tip a lil

Very good job man! You should add how to do all of the other ones (HVAC, cruise control, fog lights, etc.):cheers

yeah i may add on with the other buttons in the car.. but they are quite the pita to mess with if you dont want to mess up anything.. i messed up my first cruise control some.. by far i think the cruise control one is the hardest.. but perhaps ill tackle it again or at least provide some more info and faq or whats not.. sometimes i just have to get in the mood to do these writeups.. and the project was a good month long project when i was first going at it..

one of my best techniques was to solder the resistors directly onto the circuit board inline with the power to the led.. that way i could save space and clutter and allow it to be easily plug and play. i have pics.. but they are not complete.. ill see what i can do.
