Does anyone know where I could find replacements for the little bulbs inside the door and dome lights? Most of mine are burnt out. I was also wondering if it would be possible (without serious time consuming modifications) to find blue bulbs or LEDs that would fit the door lights, and if so who would carry them? I really want to have blue lights for my doors, and since all but 1 are now burnt out, I figured now would be a good time to do that.

I colored mine with a sharpie too and it suxs. Goto autozone they have colored bulbs and they also have these little rubber condom things that go on the light to change the color, those work really good too.

I see that you're in NorCal too. Where exactly are you located? I believe I have extra dome lights. And as far as colors go, Autozone has the rubber (condom-like) thingies for under 2 bucks a pair.

i used a sharpie marker and it wore/burnt off in a few days, use transparent tamiya model paint, it's held up for me for about 6 months now

I just replace my dome light with a blue strobe light. It's extremely easy to wire it up to where the dome light originally was connected to.

Awesome! thanks a lot guys, I didnt think this thread would get much of a responce, and if it did I figured the mod would be time consuming and expensive. Now I just gotta find where the hell there is an Autozone in the bay area, Ive never heard of that store before. Oh well, time to look it up in the phone book.
