Thanks I'll try that, I'm afraid to take it out and re-route it. It was a pain to pull out the climate control.
Yeah I got cut up all over the hands taking that climate control out and putting it back in.
I think I only lost half a pint though...

I wish there was a video walkthrough of taking out the climate control. Half my bulbs are burnt but I dont know if i feel confident taking that all out and it possibly not working lol

I forgot to post here to show my results and say that this is 100% worth the time. The guide made it much much easier. The only thing I struggled with a bit was the climate control, it was just tough to get the bulbs in and out that's all.



In the picture it looks like the top of the speedo is really dark, it's not actually that bad. I might fiddle with the bulbs again and see if I can get it any better since the cluster is so easy to swap in and out. I'm actually wondering if one of the LED's is out. Also for reference I did NOT use the high power bulbs for my dash, just the dome and map lights. Kind of wish I had but it saves you around $15 to go with the regulars.
