Debating a complete green or blue LED upgrade,but I'd like to see what other people have and thought it would be neat to see whether I do it or not.

Me and Thog went with green. I'll show you a few of my led interior lights. And when Thog gets on, he might check in here and post a few pics.

This is my gauge cluster with green leds on the outside and white on the inside.



Map lights



Dome Light

I can do you one better! There is actually a video on youtube for 98+ blazers for changing out lights. the bulb size that I use is the 194 wedge-based bulb. Mine are 360 degree smd's. Mine only took 5 but since yours is a 98+, I'm pretty sure yours takes 6.

Here is a pic of what the 194 smd 360 degree led looks like:

Btw, I really like what you have done to your blazer. The blue and black looks great!

A word of warning I found about blue interior LED's. It changes the color of money! lol I had to replace the blue LED's in my map lights to white LED's.
BTW Tibby I really like that overhead console in the '96 better than the one in my '02. Yours has a compartment in there & the lights are movable?

Thanks Rotti! Yeah, it has the compartment, usually I store sunglasses or cd's or something up there haha. And yeah, the lights are moveable, but they prefer not to be moved too often. If you move them a certain way, I guess the connection inside don't touch and they cut off.


And Gio, btw, just wanted to say that you are almost out of fuel! lol
