Ok first you are going to need to remove 6 screws holding in the center console, then remove the 2 screws in the shifter now pop the knob off becarfull its spring loaded not very strong tho.
Now pop off the black plastic that surounds the shifters face.
now pop off the shifter plate there are 4 snap on's here http://www.elantraxd.com/photopost/data/500/trans_004.jpg http://www.elantraxd.com/photopost/data/500/trans_001.jpg
Next unplug the power connector take notice were the red and black wires are.
now pop off the chamber that holds the light, there are 2 snap parts holding this on just use a flat head screw driver.
pull the stock light out of its holder.
Now solder in lead wires pos. neg rember to make sure you know witch is pos and neg.
almost done lightly sand the lens of your LED's (frost)
next solder your resistors to the postive Leads on the LED's
Now solder the neg. Leads of the LED's to the neg wire lead you made.
repeat with postive leads(note that would be the resistors)
The next step i used hot glue to secure them and to insulate the leads.http://www.elantraxd.com/photopost/data/500/trans_003.jpg
Thats its put everything back together.(dont forget to make sure eveything works first i use a 6V lantern style battery to test things while im working very usefull.http://www.elantraxd.com/photopost/data/500/trans_002.jpg
