The reason I ask is because I am starting to do some serious mulling over what I want to do with my 1302 with respect to gauges and stereo. I am considering LED's but at this point, I have neither locked in on them nor eliminated them from consideration.

it's from experiance

i used to work at a computer modding company. we did all kinds of stuff with l.e.d's and it just worked out that blue always seemed to be the dimest of all.

these where all high mcd l.e.d's so i'm sure it has to do with wave lenghts.

i'm thinking of doing yellow in my gauges since it shows up the brightest at night.
