I like the blue lights in the door...it matches my stereo too. Where did you get the bulbs?

They are LED bulbs taht have to be soldered into the circuit boards. I bought them at Radio Shack for $3 a piece. You will need 9 of them total, 6 for the driver, and 1 for each passenger. I bought the 5 volt ones so they would be bright, but they make smaller ones.

Hey Danny:

There are built in resistors in the circuit boards already.
