Hi,

Do you guys know where to get the 3mm blue LEDs similar to those used by Robert for his mods. Its not the Ultra Bright LEDs, his has a little blue tint on it when its not lighted. I find it so cool that I need to swap all my stock BOSS LEDS to that. I usually find tinted LEDS in yellow, orange, red, green or the transparent water clear types but never the tinted blue ones.

Any help would be great !

Thanks

I found blue LEDs at Radioshack...
They had a whole ton of options when I was there.

Hope this helps!

This won't give you the tint, but I've had a lot of fun recently turning ultabright water clear leds into frosted ones by sanding the lens with a scap of 100 grit sandpaper. Cool trick when you don't have a diffused led around. I've been getting sick of the blinding blue glare myself. A nice side effect is that it also greatly increases the viewing angle.
