Ok, here are the pic's. The conductor(s) on the led needed to be flipped around so they where polarized for the MB connector, that is one side to 12 vdc and the other to ground. I put the prototype cluster back together to see what the light was going to look like.
Also, Cypress I started to think about something you said about the switch lights not looking correct through the fiber cable using a led light source. Not sure as to why this is, but I found the following information. First, the original bulbs are incadascent bulbs. I found a graph of what wavelength of an incandascent light source and compared to that of natural sun light. The next graph is that of a cool white led. Since the incadascent light wavelength of yellow and reds are reduced in the spectral analysis might explain why the light didn't look correct. I have found led's which emulate natural sun light. Might have to try these out.
So since this worked, now I need to commit and do this to the car, plus fix the odometer.
