I got my LED's from radio shack. I used around a 580ohm resistor, And I used incandencent in the HVAC. The blue part doesn't light up becasue the red light won't pass though it. Other then that, its a very even lighting thoughout the face. All you have to do it throw in some red incandecant bulbs in your hvac and solder some red LEDs and your done. I left the center film inside the HVAC. I think I may go back in and take it out though to see if I Can get the blue stripe to lite up even a little bit.
Thats what I did with my HVAC and the red side looks purple at night so it will probably have a similar effect on the blue side with red bulbs. I to get the clear piece off I had to drill out the black plastic that held it on but a little amazing goop or similar plastic glue will stick it right back on. Post some pics when your done.
I think the problem with my switches is the resistors are not high enough and thats why they are so bright. I will try some 580 ohms and see if it dulls it down a little because its way too bright and bothers me while Im driving.
