          they look sort of blue tho, between the blue hue of the LED and the blue filter. Its not that bold cobalt blue that the other pics are. It definitely will not be that factory green color tho. If you can talk Scott into it, ask him to take pics of the instruments in the Superlincoln. It has the blue domes with white LEDs.

                    yah the LED 194's look good in the 85's tag lights... they dont look as bright in the 91 but the lense is kinda dirty (tag lense in the 85 is NOS crystal clear) and the bulb might be at a different angle.
                    I had one dude ask me about them one day I came out of the post office at dusk and had left the parking lights on (I leave them on for fun since they are all LED) he couldnt belive the light he thought they were flourescent

                    They also have more evolved 912, 921, 9xx etc size bulbs now too... I bet those in a tag lamp would blow you away!!! if they would fit... Im itchin to try some amber up front in the 91s park lamps...
