I've seen pics of this mod on here before so seeing as I got myself some new heater controls I thought I would give it a go.
It looks straight forward for the lower positions for the LEDs but. Is it possible to get a bulb behind the white Fan symbol and the 0 that are on either side of the blower control. Does this make sense?

of course it is, you will need to use a suitable sized LED (probably 3mm) and a resister to make the LED suitable for use with a 12v system. If you want a good light spread use the widest angle light beam you can get or used a diffused lens.

Probably not mate, car is up for sale (on TC and VODC) so probably not worth me doing it, if I manage to sell her before the end of the month the new owner may well be interested so will point them in your direction if that is ok with you?

Not bad but the swine flu they thought I had before Christmas turned out to be Enchepelitis (inflammation of the brain) caused by a whiplash injury I had almost 10 years ago!
May need surgery to correct, will not know until end of May.
