I did the white for a while, but it was so damn bright. I opted for the blue. I also did strips in the HVAC controls and cluster. I had an issue with a few leds going bad running the 470 ohms, and bumped it up 670 ohm.

Looks great! Is the 470 ohm resistors the problem cause I have had a few bulbs go out on me. Did they stop burning out once you switched to 670 resistors?

Yeah everywhere I read originally said 470, so i ran them. About 2 weeks in i got a couple in my steering wheel flicker, and eventually burn out. At that point I decided to swap to blue, and bumped them up to 680 ohm, and havent had an issue since.
