Where can I get Blue Lights?

Ok, I have been looking for blue lights for my dash lights. I have the silver overlay. Is it even possible to make my lights blue with the silver overlay? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Tuff.

Not the best pics but here's one with the lights on (white leds) and one with the lights off

OFF

ON

See how it only lights up on certain spots that's why you shouldn't get 4 LED bulbs just get the single ones

Just look for a 194 type bulb they have several choices of styles like single led (like I wish I got) 4 led (like I have) 6 led (I'm glad I didn't get those!)

archie, alright i found the 194 bulb section, i was wondering how many bulbs i need for the gauges, and is the bulb that illuminates the needles 194's? so in total how many bulbs will i need for the needeles, and how many for the gauges? also you said you got hot spots with the 4 led. if you got the 1 led will the light be distributed evenly ? also i have clear bumber lenses and i was wondering if i get the 4 led or possibly 6 led for my corner lights , will they warp the plastic b/c they get so hot? thanks , any help you can give would be appreciated!

You will need 7 leds for the cluster,if I remember correctly.The needles don't have seperate lights,they are lit by the cluster lights.As for heat,you don't have to worry about that because leds don't generate heat like regular bulbs do.

I am considering the 15 leds for my taillights.or if they fit maybe even the 30 led type.I want the lights to be as bright as possible.

Depends on the year car what bulbs you will need

Here's a guide:

Year Model Vehicle Number of Bulbs

Instrument Cluster Dial Illumination
Can Illumination Color Be Changed?
1982-1985 Firebird 11 YES - Blue, Amber,
1986-1992 Firebird 9 YES - Blue, Green, Amber, Red, White
1993-2002 Firebird 5 NO - (You can use brighter bulbs, but, red remains)
1982-1989 Camaro 11 YES - Blue, White, Amber
1990-1992 Camaro 4 YES - Blue (LED), Green, Red, Amber
1993-1996 Camaro 7 YES - Blue, Green, Red, Amber
1997-2002 Camaro 5 YES - Blue, Green, Red, Amber

and on the led type for the gauges I am gonna get the single inverted style the one that looks flat on top. The corners I actually have the 6 led superwhites (white) I recommend those HIGHLY they are BRIGHT and and for the fronts I'm gonna re-order some of the longer 3157's they have now, the shorter ones aren't bright enough for me I'll try and get some pics of that up soon so you can see before you order
