Heater control Wanted list

[POPEYE]

what do you do and how much is it,

Basicly take the heater unit apart and replace the existing duff lights for ultra-brights leds, the original lighting consists of not very bright greenish leds on a pcb that light up the "function in use" button, (small slit at the top of each button,) all the symbol's and sliders are lit by two plug in bulbs, these are also not very bright even when new, they trasmit light (ahah) through two clear plastic defuser type things to all the function buttons and the sliders, what i have to do is saw the back off these plastic things and drill em out to take leds, this lights up the sliders, then drill small (1mm) holes through the palstic bits and fit leds with the tails bent so the leds faces into the back of the button, this lights up the symbols on the button fronts,
when i do the first one i'll take a load of stage by stage pics and put em on here if anyone fancys a go at it, aint difficult just dam fiddley,
the pics of mine are a bit confuseing as i fitted several colours to match up with the instruments but as Toyotatony points out the ones that shine through the slide controll shine through a backing that already red and blue
so my pics have stacke of wiring which aint really needed (as you can see)
the ones i'm doing for you guys will either be a straight plug in (if i can find the pin out) or will have just two, wires comeing out which you connect to a dash lighting source like the fag lighter illumination lpug (or the side lights)

price well! parts will be aprox a fiver per and should you feel the need send me a couple of bob but it aint nessiary

if you see Stormforce's first post, he's prob be able to sort you a replacement on an exchange/deposit basis (i think) or you could send me your direct but it means haveing you dash stripped out for several days, just seems easier and quicker to get hold of a replacement,

The pics look different to my unit. Can this mod be done on a Gen 3. If so, add me to the list.
Thanks,
Mark

[stormforce]

the gen 3's are totally different Mark.Unfortunately 3rd gens are like rocking horse shite to get as breakers at the moment but i am looking for one if you hear of one going reasonable

[POPEYE]

Not sure about the 3rd gen ones (or the earlier non push button units) but if it comes apart i gues i would be possible, as Rich said you'd need to get hold of a spare unit for me to have a go at, wouldn't like go go and f##k up yours

Greeley.I will need to wait now till i get some returns back and then i can send another batch off to Ian for him to do his work.I'll put you on the list and once i get 5 more units i will wait for the go ahead from Ian and then send them to him.The unit will be £20 to me and then you will need to pay Ian his fee and once you send me your original unit i will refund £17

we'll have to see how many units Stormy can get hold of, and take it from there, unless guys send one to me direct i was going to do em in the oder of first come first served like the list in post 1,
the exchange idea was a goodun as it'll help keep a fair supply of units and stop em becomeing rare as rocking horse $hit

To save Ian getting mixed up if you pay me for the unit to start with and then i will send 5 off at the same time for Ian to do and then i will refund you £17 for your unit once you have fitted the new one.This way me and Ian can keep track of who has had theirs and no-one jumps the queue
