Re: das blinkin ruuf

When I first bought my '93 90S, the sunroof switch would blink all the
time, then finally it died. So finally got around to tearing it apart to
see just WTH is going on. Found a resistor and LED combination,
replaced both and I've had a nice constant red light ever since.
My advice, dig in and replace the damn thing, it's pretty cool when
every red light in your interior works.
