SOunds like the bulbs need to be replaced on the switch and the A/C controls. I know that alot of people just solder in LEDs cause the bulbs have to soldered off anyways.

They are a P.I.T.A. to replace because you have to tear your whole dash off, and then take the controls apart to solder the LEDs in. We have a write-up somewhere.

for the door panel lights you will prob need to do that youself. check out bbengineer.com for the the ac/heat control unit. ship it to him and you can pick the color led you want and he ships it back all fixed up. he also does speedo cluster bulbs too.
