ok i got a question and a answer for some of yous.
first of you can get alot of Light emitting diodes (LED) of ebay
i do electronics servicing and im wondering if you solder on this job or are you using wedge bulbs?
my mate said there are these small condom like things that are colored e.g blue and they go over your current bulbs. they wouldn't be as blueish an LED but still thats an easer way

Nice! I too used the 5led wedge bulbs in my cluster/dash led changeover. Love the lack of spots! Is yours very blue? I notice that mine has a very slight hint of green in there, im assuming the film on the faceplate.
You get the two #194's in your turn signals too?

The electrical connections are no problem. They are all different and only attach one way 
The only bad thing is after taking my dash off so many times, it squeaks now

well right, but I thought most trucks are wired with just the single plug going to the corner lense with just 2 wires going to it... therefore, you would have to run your own wires
at least I know that's how mine's set up; if I wanted to put signals in my corners, I'd have to run some wire; well, maybe just one wire for the blinker hot and just use a common ground...

The glove box, ashtray and ignition key lights were part of the optional convenience light package. They can be added relatively easily with wreck yard parts but to make them work like a factory install is a wiring headache I'm still working on... the ignition light is on a time delay that needs a full factory harness to make functional, other then that it is a simple splice and play job.

Wife wants to bring a van to Turkey instead of the Surf...Since i ride a motorcycle to and from work, she figured that the car needs to be something she liked drive and she didnt really like driving the surf. The van will be good for when family comes and visits tho...i will just have to try and find another good Toyota for a project later on down the road....
