Your opinion please on inside lights (colour)

Hi all

I have been thinking about changing the inside bulbs who project yellow lights to either blue or red color LEDs, or perhaps white leds. I've read a thread about an owner changing his bulbs to all bright white leds and he says it was to make the inside more "classy". But I am worried that these would be too bright. So perhaps red or blue?

I have a black on black. What do you think would be the nicest? Ive seen blue FX35 on YouTube but they went over board. I simply want to replace the bulbs that we already have...

Thoughts? I am thinking blue because the dash lights are mostly blue.

I changed the lights in the cargo bay to the brightest white LEDs that would fit in the fixture. They're not very bright. In fact I think the yellow ones were brighter. But the white look better. Blue might look nice but they won't provide any illumination.

Kinda what I was afraid of. I know there are several several different options for what you can use in any particular 'outlet/socket' - but would you mind sharing which ones YOU used? (how many LED's were in that one particular light you replaced? is it a wedge or a 'tube' with lights all around it?) can you post a link?
I am wanting the better looking whiter ones also .. don't mind them being not as bright for the front doors ... probably willing to sacrifice a little brightness for a better/newer look in the other locations.

THANKS!

I tried to find the receipt for the lights I got but no luck, I don't think I saved it. If you search this forum for "+LED +cargo" (without quotes) you'll find some posts on it. I think I used the 6-festoon tube that you'll find pictured in one of the posts. The specs call for 31mm but the 33mm will fit and have 2 more LEDs. I think I got mine on Amazon but could have been ebay. Some people replaced all their lights with LEDs but I just did the cargo ones because the other fixtures seemed harder to remove. Maybe some day I'll do them all.

Thank you. I will tackle this one day soon... two in the hatch area, two front doors and 4 overhead lights - all would look better in white.

I also notice two very dim lights (yellowish) that shine in the footwell area. I'd like to change those to blue or red - also the one LED light up top by the map lights - like that one to be blue too (like the RDX's 2 blue ones they use)

XIS,

When you do so, would you mind posting the bulb numbers and the site from where you got them? Also a few pictures would be nice as well. I like your idea of mixing white and blue except for the front doors - if white, the blue on the footwell would perhaps not stand out as much as if you had the doors and the footwell blue? I don't know. Oh and let us know how difficult it is to remove the plastic cover of these light (notably as well the LED light up on top by the map lights.).

PS: Don't forget the 2 lights over the rear doors as well.
