I found another site that carries single LEDs in a 74 size:

Not trying to steal your thunder, Pete! I'm just a little concerned about the light dispersion of a single LED, like Blanco.
BTW, Blanco, I followed your lead w/ the Jam Strait 4-LED amber wedge for the clear corners...I love it! Clear by day, amber by night.

74 is also in the cluster as well. I have yet to see someone provide bulbs for the vanity light mirrors!

No, I've not ordered from them yet...I'm hoping someone else will be the guinea pig!!! It looks like they're selling single LEDs as well, and that's what I'm a little worried about. I think I might be better off just waiting and going with something like an LED tube that lights up the whole footwell instead of getting a single LED, as long as it matches my Polargs I need to get a look at the orientation of the #74 bulb in the housing because the way my corner wedges are sitting, they light up pretty broadly, but then it's a 4-LED bulb that's pointing forward, so from the side, it looks pretty good. We'll see...I'll think about it...

Yep...those dang vanity mirror bulbs are unique....I don't think there's an aftermarket bulb for that type yet.

Are those 74 Footwell LEDs really that blue or is it just the picture? Compared to the other bulbs they look blue, while the others look white/purple.

the #74 footwells are white/blue.....the purple you see on the #3022 and #194 are due to the glare from the camera lens.....no purple at all.

I'm convinced...definnitely ordering some #74's. Those other LEDs look pretty darn good too! They appear to be a lot brighter than the Polargs I'm using now. Are they just glaring on the camera or are they that much brighter, Pete?
Thanks for posting pics!!!!!
