Tools needed:
10mm Socket setup
Small flat blade screwdriver
Medium Phillips screwdriver
T-30 Hex driver
Soldering iron
Solder sucker
Solder
Needle nose pliers or tweezers
3 SLT-773 LED's in the color of your choice (same LED's
as the gauge cluster)
Next, using the small flat blade screw driver pop off the
little covers on the side of the steering wheel.
Now you can use the T-30 Hex driver to remove the two T-
30 Hex bolts. These are the bolts that hold the airbag in.
Once you have loosened these two bolts completely you
can pull the airbag away from the steering wheel. You can
just let it hang and do not need to disconnect it.
Once you separate the two halves the PCB will come right
out. Take note of the direction of the LED's, the triangular
notch that is missing is the cathode side. Make sure you
place your new LED's in the same direction.
Unsolder the old LED's, tin your pads and solder in the
new LED's. When you are ready to reassemble the control
unit, place the PCB in the button side first and then put
the back on.
Snap the two pieces together and install the screws. You
can now reassemble the truck and test it out.

The LEDs are the same as the cluster, I get mine from LC-
LED.com. Part number is in the first post. I build my own
shifter lights.

Nice write up. When are you going to start building these
as well? Like a swap program?

I see you have changes the fog lights and traction
controls on the left of the steering wheel as well. What
type of bulbs or led's do you need for that? Is there a link
to this mod here somewehere? I would love to do this.
Thanks Tim

Lots of questions.....
Different topic.
I have been trying to do some research into whether or
not the driver power window and lock key panel can be
illuminated or not as well as all the other doors window
switches.
And the other would be the pwr side view mirror controls
on the left on the dash.
