i want to change my channel light and meter light to blue. Everything else in my Kenworth is blue, so these may as well be blue also. Normal 12-volt hookup. Any replies would be greatly appreciated

You can probably get the channel LED's from Copper, not sure. You can get blue LED's anywhere just about. Changing out the channel LED is nothing, but you need to make sure you get a resistor to drop voltage for your meter LED or it'll only last a few minutes. Possible that it will burn real bright and then pop like a pimple...had that happen.

you can get blue LED's from autozone, 3 in a package for under $10 that resistors for 12 volt dc use, and they are really bright even with the resistor on them, I have had them in my car for over a year now and no problems with them.hope this helps.

True that, but you can't buy Channel Segments from Autozone. I would like to know if Copper sells these or do I need to look elsewhere??
