Hey All,

I have read on several threads about "blue lights" on the inside door handles. I am very confused as my door handles are not blue at all but more of a GREEN color. What gives?? Have I misread some comments or are my doors handle lights a different color???

Thanks!

I'd say mine are more of a Turquoise color. Not blue not exactly green.

one guy on here modified his lights to go blue because i think he didnt like the aqua color. he still has not given a detail version of exactly what he did, but if you are an engineer and have tapped into the car battery then it should be a cinch. i would do all that, but 1. i do not have the time, and 2. looks like a lot of work

Lol... A thread comparing Green to Blue...

I personally think its more of an Teal color. Haha

About the blue thing though, I remember seeing a thread about that... it was definitely pretty cool looking actually.

This is it http://www.chevymalibuforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2248, he not only changed them to blue he added a few.

There is no problem. It depends upon the choice of color you want.

Mine are that "aqua" color too. Which is fine since it matches everything.

mine are more of a pink naa but i had one of mine fixed at the dealer and they put a POS light in there its very dim so i took it out to see if it was put in right it was its just a different kind of light it looks like a square led light instead of a bulb like the the one they took out so i need to fix it my self or have them re-fixr it

Have them correct it themselves. Don't accept an inferior repair, especially from a dealer claiming to have GM Certified Technicians. They make a bad name for the rest of the guys who actually do the work right! We have several members here who represent GM service departments, and glad we do!

Mine have a turquoise/aqua color and honestly I really really like it. I had bright blue LEDs running in my G6, which I liked, but honestly the turquoise/aqua in the 'Bu holds a bit more... luxury feel to me. I like that blue led conversion though.

The first time I saw the turquoise was actually by mistake. I was driving and saw the light on my hand (I usually have my hand on the shifter in case I need to drop into M for a pass or something) and was like "What the...?!" and looked up and saw them. Then, I looked around and saw the ones in the door handles and was like "Awesome!!"

Every time it's dark outside I still do a double take at the lights.

Mine is also Turquoise/Aqua in mine but I think the one on driver side is burned out, anybody know what the part number for it is or how much it cost and where I can get it...

I made a search and the part number is 25937457. The part name is lamp front door trim.

It's between $30.00 and $40.00 dollars.

You can find at www.gmpartsdirect.com and place like that.

I ordered some led and resistor on ebay to repare the door lamp of my car my self. Stock is not delivered yet.

The repair will be much cheaper.

I'm driving an '11 LS and don't have these. I looked an there are little lenses above the door handles. Any idea why they don't light up? Maybe Just not an option on LS models?

They removed ambient lighting from LS models. You could probably add it easily if you wanted.

CP

Do you think the LS's would have the required harness and connector already in the door panel for addition of just the factory LED?

 

[cp-the-nerd]

You've gotta open the door trim to find that out for sure, I don't know how the system is wired up.
