I used to have blue and red.
![[Image: IMG_3971.jpg]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v452/konafocuswrc/inspection/IMG_3971.jpg)
Recently, i changed some to white and stopped doing it because I cannot make up my mind.
White and green combo, i might keep white and green but change green with true led green, not washed out green from factory.

Which colour would you go for?

I voted Blue. I too am going with Blue LED's in my car. I think they'd be a lot easier on the eyes than red imo.

3mm or 5mm for headlight switch, 3mm for window/lock, plcc-2 smd for ac and i advise you to buy resistor seperate, not the one comes with led. they will send you rated only for 12v. and we need 14.4v to protect leds.

Same ones for both window/door lock and headlight. The SMD's are for the HVAC and are a royal PITA to do. Pay someone for those little bastards.

depends on which color you are going after, 5mm is better on headlight switch.
