You can get the LEDs off eBay for pretty much peanuts. It's the labor involved that is the bigger part of this swap.

i met someone who was doing this to his esclade truck and was swapping everything out to blue lights, he is sending it off part by part to have someone else do it, its a huge amount of work he said, because you have to remove the green lights and re sauter the new. idk where to get blue leds but the work required is a lot!!

i also thought about doing it to my car, but havent found a good write up, plus my car may be in pieces for a few days lol

well the gf is goin out of town so i dont have many places to go. my uncle was a mechanic and is now retired and said that he would help me do it. im about to call him to set up a day to start so we can do it all. im doing this, leds for the floor (bday gifts from the gf), adding in a door insert, a door welt, and i may try to carbon fiber some dash pieces to see how they look with my grey interior
