I think the pic that I attached to my earlier post is super white. The hyperlink to Earl!'s DIY instructions has pics of the blue led in the ignition...that's what 04GS300 is referring to.

Edit: Dang, you guys reply quick!
haha brian, that shows how not often do you check the forum

josey...I was wondering if it was white or blue in the pic, which is why I asked Henry. I think it could be white because my whites have a slight blue tinge to them, but you may be right since the body of the LED is blue in the pics. When I get them, I'll probably just get one of each and decide what I like better because I think blue might look better anyway (matching the gauge cluster).

How did you get into the vanity mirrors? Do the light covers just pop off? This is the final piece of the puzzle! Can you post pics?

Henry, you want to order me a white and a blue 74 with your order and stick it in an envelope for me? I'll paypal you a few bucks!
yeah i think i can do that, these stuff are cheap anyway i will keep you ind mind buddy

you gotta wake up earlier buddy, 9am and i was reading the forum already

anyway, yes, the vanity light is very easy to change, the lens pop right out with the slightest clip with a flat head screw driver

oh and 04GS300, you are most welcome man!

OK....we got the #74 in the ignition, glove box, and footwells (for the GS).

Where else uses #74?

Uh...where did you get the M-24s? I can't find them anywhere. Lots of M-1 through M-23, but no 24

just some search on the internet, NO idea on the company:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7906695254
http://www.empire-racing.net/polarg_m24.htm
http://www.racerwheel.com/plg-m24.html

the m24 looks EXACTLY light the doom light for the is300 i got a while ago. i think i have a spare one right in my garage, if i have time i will try it out tonight and see how it looks somehow i thought the m24 is a lot "fatter" than the one in the vanity mirror
