Great job. Looks factory

The only advantage to this modification for an '08 SS would be the Home Link. We have a compass and map lights in our rear view mirrors and temperature on the Dic.

Yep...the 3 small buttons are HomeLink buttons. I have two programmed for my garage doors. Could use for gates, etc...too.

The big toggle looking button is for the sunroof of the donor Blazer.

The window switches can also be back lit if you remove the "wash" light LED.

I still want to see what the 'wash' light assembly looks like. Is is similar to some of the Dodge stuff (Grand Caravan) where it just illuminates the area between the seats?
I bet I could shoot the light from an LED down a section of fiber thru a micro-hole in the console and flood the section like that. That would help me see the cubby hole in front of my shifter. Hmmmmm.......
