How to disasemble the arm rest?
I finished the LEDs in the steering wheel buttons today. The only button that I have left is the "Auto" window button on the drives side. Does anyone know how to take the arm rest apart to get to the buttons?

he also has the one for the LED under the 'auto' in the window button. It's the 3mm LED that you use there. Not hard to change.
check it out here.

Thanks..that is my last one to change. Check out my AC knob, I put a white on top and two blues down the side. It makes a nice fade that is hard to photograph. I also put a green behind the gear select LCD to match the P. R . N. D. above it.

Rich, if you can afford not to have your truck for a few days you can package up all your stuff and send em down. i'll swap them for a small fee. I'm getting pretty good at it now :-)

Wouldn't take long to do the swap once i had them in my hand. the majority of the time would be how long all your stuff is shipping back and forth.

Making a color selection is a big part as there are a lot of choices. Pick gauge color, needle colors, button colors, knob colors, if you want any indicators color changed (P, R, N, Seat belt indicator, open door indicator, headlight on indicator, etc.) They can all be changed individually. Letting me know enough in advance to get the proper color led's ordered. i would have to have a couple pictures of your dash to be able to see what buttons you have an all that to know how many of which type of led's to order.

As you can see it's a process, the soldering portion could be arguably the easiest part of the job :-)
