That is correct, but they are dome lens SMTs that mount from the bottom and shine through a square hole in the circuit card. I used 0805s and they work fine in my master switch but none of the other switches light up, same as before I started this project.

Default window switch

It may just be 1 LED out, if one is out the other may not work... like x-mas lights.

I have some of the domed LED's if people want there stuff fixed let me know. or you can just go on Ebay and buy a new switch.
