Default Finished my center console (finally)

sup everyone, though id show off my center console which i finished lastnight, i put everything together today after all final tests where done but overall i think it came out very very clean now off to the pics...

What i used was 3mm 8,000 mcd led that i bought from seller anna75yf, used a hot glue gun to place them, and just used the resistors that they provided, just kept everything tight and everything fell into place perfectly.

taking buttons apart and adding the leds that i bought off of ebay

Looks good. Gotta be careful buying LEDs on eBay though... I bought some once and almost all of them burnt out within a month. It would suck to spend all that time doing that only to have the LEDs burn out.
