Love your web site……….I’m trying to upgrade to led light bulbs in my wife’s 1998 Mitsubishi Montero…..every bulb, including the dash lights…..are there any diagrams, instructions, or how to videos, (on YouTube for instance)??? Unfortunately, the one on the dash, in the cluster, oil pressure, etc……is out…….I’ve been wondering how in the world I’ll get to it………….also, where is the interior relay box? You have a diagram of it, but no picture of it as with the fuse box……….honestly, I’ve looked everywhere. I simply don’t see it. Any help would be greatly appreciated………..
