O/c maps are 194s. The rest looks correct. The 4x4 and air bag switches have to be taken apart and have LEDs soldered in. Same with the window, mirror, and lock switches.

Great, thanks Sampuppy1! Good thing I know how to solder then :)
Does the window, lock and mirror switches still use neo wedge and I'll just solder the wires to it? Or do I need a different LED?
Which type of bulb should I use for the 4x4 and airbag switch? 74 can't be right, right?

Buy some single LEDs and cram as many as you can in there. Solder all the leads together and run em out to the twist lok where the original bulb sat or straight to the plug for the switch. Its kinda complicated but if you do it right your locks can light up the interior Lmfao.

Okay, thanks! I'm gonna take all the things apart this weekend and hopefully I figure it out when I see it. I'll post results when done.
