need some help from the electrical gurus...

Umm Smith let me tell you from personal experience from vehicles that use this very very cheap and shortlasting crap, such as my 80's GM S-blazer

At this point it is impossible to find a lot of parts, sure companies come out that are willing to supply a lot of stuff, but not all of it remains avaliable, for example, I can't get a new rear window actuator so the button on my dash is pointless, I also can't get a replacement passenger seatbelt setup, which internals fell apart (top belt doesn't stop when pulled hard, only bottom belt does anything, think head to dash)
Factory does NOT do everything correct, try and find a door panel for a 03-07 H2? Well go straight to the 07 search because you won't find anything under 03-06. And have fun with that $800 price.

And to make this all relate to this thread even more the, 4x4 controls, those light burn out very often and given probably 5 years you'll be hard pressed to find a new one, so doing the method mentioned above is your only option.

Modern vehicles are so disposable that there is going to be hell to pay on those of us that want to keep the vehicle for decades.
Improvision is your only friend.
