Knock Link
Can anybody advise me how much I should expect to pay for one of these?
Also, who should I speak to regarding, modifying one so the lights fit in the dash like I have seen on some pictures before?
Cheers

1. Remove the 4 screws from back of KL and remove top
2. Remove nut and washer holding PCB board to back.
3. Turn over board to show where LEDS are soldered to board
4. Solder extension wires to LED connections on board. Use 2 different colours for each connector on the LED, the green wires are connected to the leg on the flat side of the LED (cathode??)
5. Wires tidied up and tie wrapped to exit case in centre.
6. Create slot in case top to allow wires to exit
7. Solder LEDS to extension wires, ensuring the correct legs of each LED are connected to the corresponding LED on the board (and that the cathode side of the LEDS match). Now carefully cut off the original LEDS from the board.
8. Reassemble
9. Happy days

Nice step by step guide mate, might think about repositioning mine now.
I was going to put it in the air vent but seeing that I now have other ideas
Where have you put yours?
