Some in this thread.

Do not order from the links though.

They have been backordered on these things since early this year. I don't know when they will have them back in stock. It was supposed to be 1 week then 2 weeks and that turned into 8 weeks

Is there an option to for them to look stock in the day light, but with the blue lighting at night?

Yes they don't glow in the day unless you have your lights on.

What you would want is the black background with white font. It will be blue at night (I'll have to revise those options).

Like I mentioned in that post who knows when they will be back in stock.

How's the install? I was think this with your HVAC mod would make the interior all white and blue which would be better. Right now only my aftermarket HU is blue and white, and I'm not really interested in all of the work to get the other lights in the interior (doors, center console, info buttons) over to blue.
