Default LED's under window and door lock switch.

Anyone ever put led's under the window and door lock switches???? I'm not sure if it would work on our cars or not, but thought I would ask and see if anyone has done it on here yet.

Like this.

That's not min dude sorry I guy on another board did it to his gm truck(pictured). Those switches looks similar to the fbody ones. So I did a search and came up with nothing so I made a thread to see if it can be done.

Holyshit that's how I thought they should be lit up in the first place. Not a damn spotlight shining on it! I swear when I first drove it at night I thought the previous owner drilled a hole in the panel...

How'd u do it!?

Edit - nevermind lol

Now that I think about it...I think the white picture is painted on, not transparent. I could be wrong.
