Thank you. I was expecting haters comments, most IS owners want white. I liked this blue color, matches the gauge cluster too. I bought these bulbs on ebay. they came from anaheim, CA so i got them in 2 days.

here are the links:
Front bulbs: (you need 3, this seller sells 5 in a pack I put the extra 2 in my parklights)

for the back seat bulbs: (you'll need 2 this seller sells 2 in a pack)

Looks awesome! I got my LEDs from DDM Tuning in San Diego. It's not a royal blue but more or a dark sky blue. Either way, I give a thumbs up to your lights. I've always loved blue light interiors!

Yeah I agree! I loved the way they look, but if you need light to find something in the dark in your car or just to read something....the blue light is pretty much useless. lol. I switched to bright white LED's just so the light can actually be used, even tho I do love blue LED's.

It looks cool...he's right above about trying to look for something but it looks clean. Now get the door lenses with blue led lights.

Thank you for the inputs. I know this LED color will not help when looking at maps or looking for things in the center console or between the seats. I don't really care. I don't go to clubs but I feel like I'm entering one when I open my doors.

So Blue LEDs look cool, but I'm thinking about putting UV LEDs damn my car is going to look like a mini rave.

I had the blue club look a while ago. Then I redid my interior with red suede so I had to take them off cause it didn't match.

Nice quality shots. I haven't done my door lights yet like others suggested, yours looks amazing.
