  1. After finishing the dimmer switch and cluster in blue, I figured I could tackle the manual AC controls as well. As soon as I got all the LEDs in, I ran to plug it into the truck and got this.

    The two bottom on the driver side weren't working and the bottom on the passenger side wasn't either. Thinking maybe I screwed something up on the bottom of the board (Such as pos and negative touching on the led or something stupid), I took it out of its little plastic case still plugged in.

    The first red square shows the positive and negative, they were a little close so I moved it a hair with my finger and the circuit board started smoking for a sec (Believe I just fried the LED, as it was the led for the passenger temp control and it immediately went out afterwards). After this happened and this LED went out, all of the LEDs on the driver side went out leaving only the two on the passenger side knob to adjust the positioning (blow to feet, face, etc) still on. I then noticed this burnt mark shown in the second square.

    Here is the front of the circuit board, all of the positives and negatives should be in the right holes and nothing looks damaged as far as I know...

    Hopefully you guys can help me out and let me know what I can do to fix this, desperate at this point! Been working on this since midnight and its almost 5 AM lol. Thank you very much.

  2. I'm on the hunt for a set of nice 22" replica wheels in Texas. Would like to find someone close by Lubbock TX (Willing to travel a little) who is looking for a stock set of OEM silvers wanting to get rid of the 22"s so it would be a simple trade off. Depending on the situation (New tires, etc) I may be willing to throw in some money on top of the stock 20"s. Lemme know what you got!

  3.  

    I used 5mm on mine I be leave. What color are you looking for? Whit a 360 viewing angle to minimize hot spots.

    I was searching for some with a 180 degree viewing angle and don't think they sell them off that site but I believe I found the 360 degree ones you were talking about. I plan on doing blue, did your cluster turn out looking good with the 360 degree bulbs?

    - edit -

    These are what you used right? Thanks again man.

  4. I say 6.0 Swap over the supercharger for sure. It's like what shawnss said, when you want more power down the road you will be wishing you went bigger and didn't mess with the 4.8. Or find you a good LS3, I look around here and there for my single cab but haven't ran across a good deal on one yet :P.

  5. I believe I've read somewhere where someone didn't actually use the OEM brackets to hold the cladding on the single cab and made some homemade ones instead. I was just wondering if any of you had a design or an opinion on the OEM vs homemade ones, as I am thinking about buying this set of cladding that doesn't include brackets :/. Also, does anyone have an idea how to mount this stuff where it won't blow off driving down the street without drilling holes in every panel of my truck? Thanks!
