I've fitted a 5mm LED and resistor - you'll need to solder it inside. The front switch cover will come off.
Does take a bit of bending/positioning to get it right. |

nice work Mate.
you really have too much time on your hands LOL
I wonder if I am just crazy with my body swap fairmont project. I was planning on spending most of easter on the job but then tiling the laundry etc took up half my time and I only got 1 day in. stripping most of the interior was pretty easy though and my 6 year old son enjoyed himself for a while undoing door trims. |

i've had the switch apart before, can you possibly post a pic of the inside after you modified? |
