I just did one switch tonight, couldn't figure out how to get the whole switch out so I just took apart the switch in place which popped the buttons off and then all I had to do was slide the board out!! If you do this while still on the steering wheel, don't lose the 3 red pins that will fall out of the buttons, you will need them for reinstallation!! Gotta go to Radioshack again and get more bulbs, thanks again for the bulb info Tailhook!!

Do you have to use a 3mm led? I couldn't imagine there is enough space for a 5mm.

Is there a chance the board would go bad? We soldered new bulbs - The one was brighter than the OEM but the other one in that same button group did not seem to light up.

I found the volume one on ebay for the 03. and replaced that whole switch but could not find the other.
