Do you have to remove the door panels to do this, or just have to pop out the switch?

Just have to pop out the switches. Well, ok, so you have to remove the trim around the switches to pop them out.

Okay, I've seen the "how-to" on the led switch. But honestly, it made no sense to me. The other day, I got into my door to do something, and just looked at the switches to see what I would be working with when the time came to put in the leds. Okay, when I pop out the window switch, it has a plug. I unplug that and just have the switch in my hand. That is where the light is that lights it? Right?? When I pop that open it reveals the bulb. Where do I go from there?

So far so good. Once you pop open the switch, be careful because you don't want to loose the brass contacts that are in the top of the switch, they will fall out though. you will see a tiny led and a resistor, best thing is to have your new led and resistor already soldered together. (long lead (anode)of led to the resistor. Then you can just remove the old resistor, remember the way it was installed and isntall your new one. depending on the size of the new led, you might have to alter the plastic mounting area that the led sits on and possibly the hole in the top of the switch that the led goes through to light it up.

Okay, I have my resistors and my leds. I hope they are the right size. I got the sizes from the how-to on the led mod. I was reading the how-to.. What is he talking about tapping into a wire and blah. blah. blah?? Someone PLEASE let me know.. Do I just solder the resistor and led together and put them in like the one that is already in there? Thank You
