Interesting! I thought the same about blue mycolor with red interior, but it ended up looking the best. Got any pics of the blue maplights with your red seats?

I found myself cycling through MyColor to pick a hue that looks the best. I used to have the r:5, b:5, g:5 (bright white) on there, but for the past few months, I am totally addicted to blue...so much so that I ordered the blue map lights. I'm with you...it just looks awesome.

Anyway, I am stuck at school until Saturday. I will get some pics up then.

Yea it's a raw deal...but those bulbs are pretty awesome. I forked over the $20 for a pair. It's worth it IMO. Hell I've spent $20 on stuff that's unimaginably, unfathomably stupid. I saw the potential, and I didn't hesitate in ordering.

If you can pull out a tiny little delicate light bulb with metal pliers without smashing it...you got MAD skills.

You won't get shocked...just disconnect the battery if she's standing over your shoulder.

There are two clips on each side. You'll see what I mean when I re-create the install and put up pictures. They should be up tomorrow or Monday.

When you remove the dome light housing, there's a clip to unplug the housing from the rest of the car. No danger of shock whatsoever.
