    The ones by my left hand no longer light up. Never have since I have owned the car. Is there a bulb of some sort behind it? If so how do you change it?

    you have to solder a new bulb in, not too bad if you are decent with a soldering iron (changed mine to blue led's a while ago)

    How does the switch itself come out? Just pops out?

    i hate all the buttons on the steering wheel i never use them. i think they are in the way. i hate the cruise control the most cause it's on the lower left bottom side. some how i always end up turning it on by accident while making a turn.

    I love the steering wheel controls. I use them all the time. I didn't like the cruise where it was at first but now I like it. It's out of the way so I don't accidently shut it off when I am driving. I am lost when I get in a different car that doesn't have the steering wheel controls.

    My 98 doesn't have cruise on the steering wheel. Just the radio controls.

    Hi there, what kind of LED's do you use?
    Where can I get'em?
    I would like to replace some of the bulbs that burnt out on the doors too....
    I took the switches appart, saw the tiny orange bulb, it seems possible to re-solder.
