illumination of switches 850 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be 850 owner on  Sat May 24 17:08 CST 2003 [RELATED]

If you're so inclined...you can remove the switch and replace the light in the old-skool type switches (93&94 850). Here's how you do it. You remove the switch, then carefully take it apart. You'll see an LED light that soldered into the switch. Buy replacement lights from Radio Shack (The catalog number can be found if you look up this subject in the archives). Re-solder in the new LED (fits in PERFECTLY), put the switch back in and you're good to go. I replaced the sunroof switch light and the fog light switch light and they work good as new. Just work on a clean table or something in case you drop parts. Total cost: $2.79 for the Radio Shack LED's (sold in pairs).
