A PWM (pulse width modulation) circuit could be made to dim the lights, which turns the LEDs off and on at a high speed, varying what percentage of the time the lights are off.

DB, do you have any idea how much current total the interior LED's consume?

I could only figure that by counting the bulb types, and getting consumption specs from the manufacturers, and simply adding them up. I don't know off hand but if someone really wants to know I'll dig into it.

They are almost all LEDs with the exception of the interior signal bulbs, the fuel warning light, and the GEN light.

DB, great job! I have not been on this board in a while and just say the final results of your hard work. I was anxious to see it after talking to you in April!

Yes this Saturday. It is the monthly MDA Cruise In, which is free and very loosely organized, starting around 4:30 - 5:00 and goes into the evening (dark 30 or so).

I am going to be out there with the family, which will be the first show I've attended in some time. I'm ashamed to say that I've only clocked about 250 miles since April.

Are you, Tyler, and Curtis going to the lake in Sept?
