My neither I don't know if someone would sell enough to make it worthwhile to make one.

too funny was just thinking about it today, the best bet is gonna be getting it from another car.

i'm working on something right now - trying to get all the lights blue.. i'm gonna try to find an easy way to make a replacement ring .. i'm sure some plastic/resin stuff (never messed with it, but i guess it's a lot like fiberglassing) would do the trick. and just texture the bottom to get even light distribution.

I lit mine up with one blue LED, and it worked enough to, well, one half of the ring blue, and the other a very very dark blue I put the led in the location of the stock bulb, and I guess it's just not enough to get around. If I get bored enough I'll drill a hole in the other side and put a second LED in there. Right now, the passenger half is lit, and as far as I'm concerned they're the only ones looking at lights while I'm driving so I don't care much, hehe. I've got it relocated towards the center console which puts it out of my line of sight completely.

So with the blue LED in there. . . you pretty much don't even notice the orange huh?

Yeah, it looks blue on the side where the LED is, and only a slight shade of blue on the other side.

its been done before but for those who havent heard of it...

go to target or anyplace that has a car/auto section and they sell blue lightup cigarette lighters. Just install where the old ligher is and your good to go.
