Default Finished the Interior Lighting( I think)

Got all my lights converted to blue LEDs and now I think I'm done. What do you think?

Thanks to nascar57 for all the help. He did the radio and HVAC and helped with the rest.

Wow! those footwells are bright!! Is the purple/red reflection on your upper seat/dash/etc surfaces refracted light or did you use red LED's in the mirror overhead/map light(s)??

Really looks GOOD!!
