find this harness . and follow his diy, cept skip the ccfl part and just attach led's. just as easy. i have 4 led's running from the same leads and its working fine for me.
i am gonna do white in the vanity mirrors at some point ( so i can actually see clearly if i need them).
but people who say blue gets old, ya it does , or it stay neutral. the cool will fade eventually. BUT everytime someone new sees your car, or even you park it somewhere at night... you're gonna get oooh's and ahhh's. i love that, but thats just me.
and ya, white would be more of a luxury feel. personally, im 20 and in college. i can have pure luxury when im older, for now, i worked my *** off for years to be able to buy this car and ima make it look cool!
just my opinion tho..

Well I plan on doing the same but I'll do the work myself. Someone on here only had to spend $100 on LEDs for the gauges and that's what like 70 of them I think he said so it shouldn't cost you $700. Any idea though on what LEDs we need? Pretty sure they are all the same. Oh and it depends on what year you have. 03-04 didn't use LEDs for the speedo and tach they used bulbs with film. I am just going to take film off and it will be white for my 03 gauges.

I don't think it's rice at all. The G35 is supposed to be an entry level luxury car. The stock dim yellow interior lights look cheap IMO. This isn't an Integra

I agree... I've replaced all the interior dome, glovebox (upper/lower) and door lamps, trunk lamp and license plate lamp with the 6000K white LEDS... nice clean white light.. easy on the eyes... not ricey.. tried the bluish 6500K.. hard on my eyes... weak illumination for my tastes... and THAT is what it comes down to.. what YOU like!
