I'm going to try to put it on top of the dash in the far left corner. I haven't tested to see if it would fit though.

I ordered some from superbrightleds.com but they do no light the switches up so i mite just say the hell with it and solder some in,the problem is the light shines straight not 360°,i soldered one in for the window switches that works good but the window lock and door lock dont light up at all so i got to figure something out

i had em from sbl. they were the neo 3 and 4s. forget which but the drivers one for the windows i believe needs to be the high power one. the standard one is too long. ive since done one 5mm led under each switch on the passenger side switches to practice with cheap leds from radio shack. when my blue come in all finish the rest of them. i did have blue in the passenger switch and it was blue, just not as bright as even of light as id like. maybe the high power ones in all of them wuld work better. i have the led in headlight switch too and its dim. going to led retro 4 or 5 in that as well...
