Default Hyperwhite or Blue LEDs?

Well, originally I thought of putting blue LEDs in replacement of the map lights, dome lights, and door lights in my 97 Accord. After a little thinking, I realized there there is a possibility that all of these lights being blue could potentially become annoying. Although I'm not for sure.

Anyone used LEDs for dome or map lights? Was is aggravating to the eyes?

Should I mix the hyper whites with the blues by putting the blue only on the door (lights on lower part of door panel) and then use hyper white for dome and map lights?

Lol. No, I just meant if/when I turn my lights on. I mean, in the pics, the lights look REALLY REALLY blue. Blue enough to make the person in the passenger seat a smirf. But if the white lights are good, i'll go ahead and buy those to the tops and the blues for the doors.

Haha. Well, I've already gotten the blue LED trunk light. I'll have to get someone to agree to crawl in my trunk and pose.

I have the blues and I like them a lot. They are very blue, but I love the look. They are nice and bright. The only downside I have with them is they wash out color a bit when it is dark. But I am willing to deal with that.

I switched out the maps, dome, and door lights.
