Indiglo control
DAMN! I was working on my interior and somehow the control for my reverse indiglo gauges got the cables and a small circuitboard snaped right off. Does anyone know where I can buy a new control. If it were only the cables I would ask about the order of the cables and I would solder them but the small board broke. I also thought about going to an electronics store and see if they have the variable resistor for the luminascence (brightness) control.
So I ask again... Where can I buy a control for the gauges? If not, should I get the variable resistor to fix the small board that broke?

mine is totally different, it's really slim and has 2 push buttons for color change and dimmer. The buttons are push like those slim remotes for decks, but has no circuitboard on it. Look more like controls instead. On the other end it has a connection piece plug in socket similar to a computer plugs (ex. motherboard -> hard drive) but smaller.
Let me know if that will work.

I've seen the control that lights up blue also and has two buttons (color and brightess) I kinda don't like that one 'cause it's awful distracting on the dash I had this control mounted under my seat since I'm not constantly changing colors or brightness. But worse comes to worse I'll get that one. As long as the plugs that go into the indiglos themselves are the same I see no difference.

Ok so I went to Radio Shack and checked out the potentiometers and found one with the same value but it was the size of a microwave (obviously exagerating) then I went to a local electronics store and found that they had the SAME one I have but a different value and I asked the vendor if he could get me the value I needed and he said that I should check in on wednesday.
If and when I get it I can fix those cables BUT I still need to know the order of the cables on the color switch. SO I was hoping that someone has the same type switch that I have and they could tell me the order of the cables.
PLEASE HELP!
