their the #74 LEDs direct replacment ones the AC and Rear window defrost lights work but not the leds for some reason. This is what i did, I took off the front plasic peice that covers the HVAC and radio, undid the screws on each side of it pulled it out till i couldn't anymore, Poped of the front plate, broke the lights and used a needle nose pliers and grab one of the wires inside the light and pulled them out, cleaned it out, pushed LEDs in till they poped into place and put everything back together. Did i do anything wrong? I check the fuse for HVAC and the In. Lights

do me a favor......... go and flip the bulbs around.....
if you look closely indside the LED thingy.. there is one resistor, and one diode
as we all know what diodes do, your solution is simple
you should of checked it befor putting it back together
