You will need:
In the mean time, Here is part one:
How to Prepare and modify the Backlight kit ready for installation.
Hope you like the series ... I will add to the top of this post here and put a link into the latest thread as it happens.
I actually decided to remove the cumbersome PCB all together and simply ad an inline SMD resistor (or you can pinch the one out of the HK kit)
