Alright, so I went to the BSSD.vi file and added 9 more elements to the Cluster AND Array so that the wiring would agree. After that, I added the 9 extra LEDs Like you suggested and got the cluster wiring to agree with the button cluster.

After that, I went ahead and updated the Dashboard by Ungrouping the bars and LEDs and deleting both of the original LEDs from the program. I went into the Block Diagram and right clicked the outputs of the buttons and created the new indicators to let the program adapt to the new added buttons. I did some rearranging, and labeled the new LEDs on the Bigger Dashboard.

However, the new button group on the Dashboard don't look like the original. I would be fine with the way it is now, for I think it should work (for the RUN arrow isn't broken, which indicates no errors), but it would be great if I can make it look like the Awesome original...

Thanks!
