    got it leds were burned out. any idea why the dic dimmer is reversed from the rest of the dash? when i go brighter the dic gets dimmer and vice versa. i also couldn't find a jewel cd case so i used a piece cut out of a blue bottle of dawn i think its a little to dark so i might try to find something that lets more light through later

    no idea on the diming thing i never mess with my dimmer, and if i had it to do over i wouldn't have put anything blue behind the screen, should be fine with the white alone cause it gets the color from the leds themselves. ill mess with my dimmer next time i drive it and let you know...
