Changing the lights and adding tints

I just got my car a couple of weeks ago, and it's about time to start with the changes. First of all, I need to know what brand of lights to buy for the:
Dome Light:
Map Lights:
Door Lights:
License Plate Light:
Road Lamps:
High Beams:

Any help with this is appreciated. Also i got the aegean blue cl-s, so I was wondering what color tint to go with, i've already decided to go with 35%, just not sure if I should go with black, silver-mirror, blue (if there is such a thing ), or ???

I figure these changes are most necessary before I get started with the engine mods and what not. Thanks for the help!

I don't think the blue tint is legal. Black tint looks good on blue, & silver. The mirror stuff is nasty IMO. The mirror stuff will interfear with a radar dectector too.

Ok, so far i've looked into the PIAA Xtreme Super Whites, and the PolarG M-4 and M-6's. I know that the M-4 lights are the the map lights, but what should I do with the M-6, and the PIAA's, I'm so damn confused....I'm not usually this out of it, but it's early, and and i'm at work, and my boss is an idiot.

the M6s are for the so-called driving lights. you could also use the piaa 19224s.

Welcome!!! Here is a post that Scooter and I have been going back and forth on!! PIAA Lights It looks like you have all the same lights that I just bought and installed!! I also have and Agean Blue CL-S and you will LOVE the 19172's for the interior lights!!! Combined with the 19223 dome light, it will give your interior a REALLY COOL blue tint!!!! Matches PERFECT with the color of the car!!! I don't think you can go wrong with your last post of lights!! I posted pics of all the lights I installed in the above thread!!! Check it out. It is hard to tell the color of the interior lights, but trust me, it is AWESOME!!!! If you want a website that has them for $10 a pair, let me know. Good luck!!!
