I switched all my dash and counsel bulbs out this winter with blue LED bulbs. I really like the look better than the stock bulbs. They are not as brite as the white LED bulbs and the blue bulbs really make the gauge lettering pop in color. I purchased a 20 pack of bulbs off e-bay for $12.

Did the same thing on mine about a year ago. I also used blue. I really like the look it give to the dash and instrument cluster. I also like the way it makes the orange paint glow and the white gets a blue tint. The only problem I have is that when I use my left turn signal, all of the light blink. It doesn't hyperflash, just blinks along with the flasher. I've heard this is probably from a bad ground. Blue led's look good and in my opinion . give an updated look to dash

Yes the blue LED's remind me of that Black Light poster look. Oh boy am I showing my age. 😆
