Go to VLEDS.com. I've ordered from them before and was plenty satisfied.

And like the previous post, check the laws. Over here you can get a nasty ticket for something like that.

I have switchback LEDs on my truck. When the driving lights are on, they are 6000k (white with a blue tint) and when the turn signal is on, they change to amber.
They are like this.

I don't remember seeing any blue 3157 bulbs on VLEDs.

if you get LEDs, get a LED flasher to eliminate hyper-flash.

and again, blue LEDs will get you a ticket around here for posing as a police vehicle.

hi there.. i was able to find several sites myself since i also found LED turn signal lights to be a nice addition. i'm not sure exactly which ones you are looking for but just click around and i think you can find one that suits you.

yall need to be careful, most states have laws against blues of any type, especially flashing. the ricers get pulled over a lot just for blue headlights. around here you need to be LEO, fire, EMS, etc for reds or blues

I know around where I live, it is a very large fine, and I dont know of 1 cop that will cut you a break for red or blue lights unless youre Volunteer firemen, first responder, reserve officer, etc etc etc.

If you want to get some go ahead, but like everyone has advised, its not a good idea.

First things first, I don't think blue LED turn signals are allowed.. Secondly if I was you I would check ebay thats where I get my HIDs.
