better lights in the dash

anyone with the dash style i have knows the dash lighting is mediocre at best, and that the dimmers go bad after a while.

i decided to kill 2 birds with one stone.

first i took out the dash (u guys seem leet enough to know how it just slides out), disconnected some things, and took off the dimmer completly. then i used the coil inside it to bridge a connection between the two prongs b/c im cheap and didnt have any wire at the moment (i just wraped it over and over.

well it worked better but i like cool things so im working on the other bird at the moment. I'm building a LED assembly that will supply 11,000mcd of blazing white light to the dash (thru the light ducts).

I'll take a picture when i'm done but you have to agree that the lighting in there is pretty pitiful.
