    the color looks kinda white, but its a nice deep blue.

    blue and red LEDs in the cluster and blue LEDs everywhere else

    it wasnt too bad. the window buttons and lock buttons and the steering wheel lights are 3 and 5 mm LEDs from ebay. dirt cheap. the rest are LED strips. those are kinda pricey. overall maybe $75. then the effort of doing it and actually making it look good. i know ppl that have just thrown them in and the light is all spotty and looks like ****. finding a way to make the light even is the hard part. its all trial and error.

    I'm pretty sure you could find a UV bulb... though otherwise, I hope the drive likes purple since that's basically what UV looks like.
