Default Blue or White Interior LED Lights???

So I'm going to change all the interior lights of my SC to LEDs. I have come across a decision, should I get blue or white? The white seemed to be a bit more...classy, but the blue looks too cool to ignore (and my gf likes the blue lol). What's your opinion?

Blue is less harsh but the white gives more light. I vote blue.

Yea, I was thinking the white would be more classy. Speaking of door sills huy33, I actually want to try and take mine apart so it would shine white instead of yellowish. I haven't been able to find anyone on here that has successfully done it yet. The light itself I believe is incandescent (shines yellow) and the Lexus logo glass is gold (shines yellow), so I'd have to replace both. It involves removing the metal insert, which I don't have the right tools for...I may just break off the fasteners holding the metal and just glue it back on when I'm finished lol

oh..i think the Pebble Beach edition has a different color door sill light? Here's a pic of mine, it's gold colored when it's not light. I just found the second picture from GS3Tek (The top is an LS430, the bottom is SC430). Maybe I can use the LS430 sill instead of the SC430 one, although GS3Tek mentioned that LS430 sills don't light up, so maybe the logo isn't transparent...anyways:

Hmm... I'm not sure what color mine is when it's not on but here's a bad picture of them on. I have to find a non PB to see what color they are.
