    I've decided to replace the switch lights on my car to blue and I'm doing so with a blue led however I have been unsuccessful in finding a blue LED that can handle the 11-12V this source is putting out. Anyone know of one?

    I've just taken any normal led and used a resistor, allowing it to be used with 12v

    eBay search presided 12v led, perfect matches. I've done my gxp in red and my Gtp was done in blue.
