Message	Compared to the stock brightness of the climate control pod... I put some red flat top LEDs in the climate control pod...so I can decide which color I want to stick with. I'm leaning towards red...and I'm already looking at ordering some wide angle red LEDs for the gauge cluster :) OK...so I have a question for those who have done this before. What did you do about the TINY bulbs? Like the one on the top of the climate control pod that lights up the "AUTO" and defrost button. The LEDs I have are 3/16" wide and won't exactly fit through the opening for this bulb...nor fit in the holder. I have a feeling I'll be breaking out the hot glue gun for this one. Any advice? I'll post pictures of my J-spec Z emblem shift light soon...I just need to make one more thing look pretty. Stay tuned. -Brad 1992 Z32 2+2 NA 1986 Z31 Coupe NA (For Sale) ________________________ "Let me brake the news to all those ignorant old folks in this forum." - nightriderZ on July 14, 2005 at 2:33 AM "...Stage III does require an ECU upgrade MORAN..." - djtz1 on June 29, 2005 at 3:34 PM "yes...tight is good..." - ZXRider(SoCal) on June 24, 2005 at 2:18 AM "Have you asked her to smile like a doughnut yet?..." - dvlhntr on February 28, 2005 at 2:26 PM
