Blue Overhead Bulbs
I'm looking to change my overheads to a dark tint of blue... I bought some "blue" bulbs from Autozone and originally they were blue, now they're white. Does anyone know of a place where I can get blue bulbs that wont fade?

I did the LEDs. However, apparently in the state of New Mexico all marker lights, even overheads have to be amber. I got pulled over last weekend going snowboarding in Durango. I'll throw a pic up tomorrow night before I put the amber's back in

I didnt do my homework on this one... I had an idea and went with it... They matched my C2 gauges perfectly. I ordered a set of amber LEDs so those will be here tomorrow since I forgot today was a holiday but o well... its best just to succeed to the law and not push my luck. The cop that got me could have gave me a ticket but he didn't so in the end its fine with me

I had a purple F-150 years ago and was always getting in trouble for purple and blue lights. I have finally gone all red and amber, then got pulled over because the red markers were making it hard to read my plate at night even though I did still have a white light illuminating it. 
Currently though, I do have tons of blue LED's in the cab of my truck, about 80 I think. My factory guages, aftermarket guages, HVAC panel, speakers, stereo, amp, shifter, all have blue LED's.
