I can never remember if the top of the switck was locked, or unlocked. So I would hit the button, and all I would hear is the mechanism, but still didn't know if it was locked or not.
But not any more.
I have no idea what size the LEDs are.
I get them from an automotive accent light website, so I don't ask alot of questions. I order them up, and they're shipped with the proper resistor, no pain.
Thanks for all the great props.
