LED's

I was wondering if anybody has installed led's in the interior instead of using neons? If not, what would i need in order to do this. I was thinking of blue led's under the dash and under the front and back of the seats.

i am planning on doing this in one of my cars.

first off. you need an led of 2500 light intensity or higher. then you need to figure out the resitors that you would need to keep the voltage down. also, you need a high intensity, wide dispertion pattern, so it spreads the light evenly, instead of being like a spot light like a third brake light.

good luck.

thanks
