The super white has a blue hue to it anyway. So unless you want a really blue light, go with the whites.

I vote for super white. They had just the amount of blue hue I was looking for.

for the dorm light, i suggest using super white. i have both, but then i put away my blue cuz it's useless when it comes to actual visual....u can't see with the blue (like when you try to read a book or sumthing, u can't see). however, blue looks damn good on the door!

I recently installed blue dome and door lights and super white map and license plate lights...i like it but when u want the light to serve its purpose (as a light) the blue dome doesnt work well...So im going to replace the dome light with a super white LED but i want to know if i should buy from tectoyz again for $8 shipped for a 6LED dome light OR

Buy from autoillumination if this one is compatible: http://autolumination.com/festoon.htm
"the 39MM 9LED light" for $9.50 shipped....

Does the 3 extra LEDs make a difference and will the color match my tectoyz map LED's?

I have seen 31mm and 39mm, which one for the whole interior?? How do I know if the leds on Autoillumination are for my TLS??

Not a real easy site to figure out. I see that I can eventually do my dashboard, which in super white would be awesome.

B/C the 9LED from tectoyz is 44MM...the '99 TL Dome Light only fits with 39MM bulbs....can anyone answer my question?

Will the 9LED's be THAT much brighter then the 6LED's from TecToyz?
And will the AutoIllumination White LED's match the color of the TecToyz White LED's?

haven't seen the tectoyz one in person so it's hard to say. but check out the pic below to see how "white" the autolumination one is.

go for the
"39mm = 1-1/2" Long 9LED" for $6.99 (about 1/3 down the page), save yourself $3


check out how mine looks (and yes the colors are very close to actual):
