Hang in there guys, I'll have a detailed fix for you soon. Or at least for the Vegas/Axis owners.
It should be very easy to wire the dash lights to turn on with the ignition. That's what I'm going to do with ours. I'll post what wires to connect, I know the accessory/ignition feed wires go right behind the dash under the access panel so I'm thinking is should be something that's easy enough for most anyone to do. Doing the same mod on the F53's dash should be pretty simple too.
