Nice man! I did mine for about the same price over six months ago and they all still work.

Cool. Have you done the AC/LIGHT controllers yet? You know the solders one lol

I did my rear ac controls front and back in blue and my door switches in white but some of the white ones already burnt out. Not sure if they blew because they were so cheap or because I didn't use big enough resistors. All my blue ones still work.

Looks good Art, wish mine was that easy to do.

It is easy. For me anyways, lol! Just send it to me when you are ready and I will hook it up like the last cluster I did for you.

Not hard to do at all if you know how to solder. I think mine only had 1 or 2 boards but those were the rear ac controls. Still have to do the front controls and haven't taken it apart to look at it yet. Maybe someday I'll make a thread of how I did/do mine.
