i want to know where i can buy some blue lights..really small bulbs i want to place some in the cubby hole of my cd dash kit and i want to put some in the cup holders. if you know a place where i can buy light like this please let me know.
 
my local advance auto parts store carries a package that contains 6 small led lights and a button that turns them all on. im sure streetglow also makes something. or maybe advance was carrying one of streetglows products.

if you want to replace interior bulbs, figure out the size/what the code is for the bulb and there should be options here:

ive used the 6 led bulb and the 1 big led bulb and both produce a ton of light. really helps to see things better (white bulb of course). the colored ones will probably look cool, not sure about how much light they actually put out.
 
yea i want something small and if it comes with a switch even better..im gona place them in some spots inside the car...ill check my part store too..there isnt a site that i can order the light package from?
 
how do u get those o work? what kind of wires do i need..i wanna run them off 12v cigarette lighter so when my car turns on they come on

find a power wire that runs to your radio so whenever you turn the key they turn on. thats how i wired my wideband.
 
it would probably be wiser to run them from a 12v wire that comes on when your lights come on...that way they arent always on when the car is on...

I did something similar with the footwells, but with LEDs only.
The LED Light Parts list:
18 x 5LED Orange 15
PowerPuck #2008-350mA driver

Everything else (18ga. wire, heat-shrink, switch, project box) was from RatShack...
I haven't finalized the installation yet, but I have 2 taped under the dash and 2 to the bottom of the seat on the driver & passenger side, then 2 more taped to the underside of the seat rails for the rear seat footwells.

Power was tapped from the accent light in the ashtray, so they only come on with the parking/headlights.

...With 12 LEDs on this driver, they're only slightly under-driven, and the light level is just about perfect. The color matches pretty well, too. I haven't decided if I'm going to put any lights in the cupholder, glove box, or console storage...

I'll try to get some pics tonight, now that I have a good camera.

wiring in a switch might be a good idea just incase you ever get annoyed w/them on while driving. you could still have them come on whenever you turn on the car just leave the switch on.
