It's a personal thing. A few years back I tried to turn everything in my car blue. Now my taste in modification has mellowed so I voted white. Blue just seem gimmicky and gaudy. Like I said that's just my personal taste these days.

White LEDs that emit a light blue hue is better.

Blue lights looks disco...

I like blue myself. I frequent the clubs a lot as well as many of my friends so blue lights are fine with me. White is also a great choice say for someone a lil older but still wants that futuristic interior look. Either way i think they are two great choices of colors for the interior.

LOL, course but imma upgrade from the 4led to the hi-po which should be in the mail tomorrow.

As for the reasons i use blue, my car is white, therefore a nice contrast of color.

Taste and preference aside, I think white is a better choice because it is easier to see things (e.g., a dropped coin) with them.

Even Rastafarian drivers more likely to drop a dime bag than a dime coin might as well go for the white LEDs. Law enforcement always carries powerful flashlights.
