I decided to go blue and white mix...I put two 5 LED 194 blues in under my dash. I also put in 4 LED 194 whites in the overhead console dome lights.

I am now on the search for the last rectangular courtesy housing that is over the back seat. I am going to order a clear lens for the middle, but I am still not sure what bulbs I need. I pulled out the "push" light bulbs but the middle I cant seem to get (any suggestions)

I keep seeing either 43mm or 44mm bulbs, so which is it? And are all three the same, or is the middle different?

I also want to do the LED switch under the cluster. I know those are all 194, but does anyone know how many there are? (1998 C1500)

They're both 44mm, but the bulbs on the sides are rigid loop festoons while the center bulb uses standard festoon bases.

I would personally steer clear of blue just because blue will be much harder on your night vision. Just a thought.
