peoples, we have a mistake in the midst......
there are TWO different types of LED used in the stilo.
one is the 3528 footprint and the other is the 1206 footprint....
3528 is used on:
- Window controls
- mirror controls
- panel by driver
1206 is used on:
- dash leds
- internal light switch leds
you can get away with using 3528 on all EXCEPT in the dash....if you use them in the dash (especially behind the LCD) you will get three distinct bright spots...the correct LEDs are 1206. the difference is the angle of light spread and the light output. the 3528 LEDs have too high an intensity and the spread is too narrow. you need to use the 1026 to make it looks OEM....my dash has been done with 3528, and ive just ordered some 1206 to re-do it because it is really bugging me....
btw still haven't got to the bottom of the window controls only half lighting up.
