Hawk, you were absolutely right - the backlit knobs are pretty cool after dark! :D I am gonna do more backlit stuff from now on :D

awesome!

Thanks!

Ok, so I ordered some resistors from canada :o Was the nearest ebay place I could find them - for those dont't know - that's the other side of the planet from norway :P.

I'm a little anxious to see how bright the leds are with those resistors. I have a led resistor calculator on my android, and I have been to lazy to calculate on my own. But that calculator says that I should use 130 ohm resistor 5 volt source, 2.5v across diode and 20mA. The ones I ordered in is 180 ohms. Lets see how it works out - somehow I think it's gonna be just as good... But I haven't got too much experience with driving LEDs from 5 volt, so I really can't tell for sure, but now when I tested them on 12 volt I have used 560 ohm resistor, and that is just about the same as 180 ohms 5 volt, so I think it's gonna be fine.
