Hello I'm thinking of doing an interior LED swap on my 2000 expy. I want to do all the doors the dash controls and the gauges. I can take everything apart and look but o thought I'd ask and see if any one knew how many I would need. Also I started taking apart the driver side window control panel and those are already leds, can I just replace those and keep the stock resisters or do I have to change those out too. Really any info or advise or threads about this would be appreciated. Just looking for info. Thank you all in advance.

I didn't do the dash, but I did do all the interior lights. The folks at superbriteleds.com were helpful and had everything I needed.

superbriteleds.com are great. I think there are links to some other LED replacement light sources in other threads here, I know I have some bookmarked on my home machine.

I was thinking of starting a thread where only the part# and links would be posted for each year model as people find them.

So if I bought a certain type (and there are many or each bulb) then I would post it with the sellers info and appr price if that doesnt break any forum rules.

Personally I would like a one-stop-shop for parts that other have used and actually recommend.

Did you just replace the leds our dud you do the resisters also? And how many did you use if you remember.
