Question S14V 1.4W bulb Challenge

I have a white S14V 1.4W bulb lighting up my center console cup holders in my 2012 Fit.

I want to get a blue one to match all the blue themed lighting.

Can someone help me find this? is there an alternate part number I'm missing?

I already tried putting in a T5 / 74 wedge in there but it did not fit. So i shaved a little plastic to fit and I blew a fuse.

Hi Albert. By any chance, does your bulb look like this little bugger?

If so I may be able to point you in the right direction.

That's it right there. Do you know where to get a blue one?

I frequently order lights from LEDAutomotive.com for my 01 Honda Prelude. Right now they are looking to getting me two of them. One for my shifter (I drive an automatic :/ ) and one for my ashtray/change cup. Shouldn't be more than $2-$5 a piece when they come through with them. I'll let you know when they email me back with an answer, sound good?

Most likely. I replaced the lights in my climate control a few months ago and now the red doesn't show up, it's really more of a dark purple. Not that it really matters to me anyways.

Climate control? you mean all the lights in the radio and the 3 knobs that adjust the temp?

So many questions now.

Do the knobs pull right out? Bulb size..
Did you do the radio ones as well?

oh yeah the reds cancel each other out...

I would also like to know these questions. Interior lighting will probably be the filler upgrades until next tax refund time when I can shell out for new rims and tires.

Sorry it took a few days. The direct LED replacement is the 74HP3. I bought it from LEDautomotive.com. Mods if I'm not allowed to post links I apologize, just edit it out.

I can post pictures of my interior lighting of anyone would like. I can only give help to people with 5th gen preludes though, as that is all I've worked on. If you search the Web, I'm sure you can find walkthroughs on your cars.

Let me know if you guys have anymore questions, or want pictures. I just spent $63 upgrading the interior lights to LED, and it looks phenomenal.
