Default What color LED interior?

I can't decide what color I want to change my interior to, should I go with blue, red, white, or other LED? Right now I'm changing, Gauge Cluster, HVAC, doors and headlight switch... and will be changing my dome and rear view lights soon..

Red.

I just changed myn to red LED. So at night the lights don't impair my vision as much. I work with red lights in my other cars and it works great when you gotta jump out quick at night or just driving. ***EDIT*** Just to clairfy I am talking about the dome light, map lights, door lights, and glove box light being in LED red. I have my guage cluster, and HVAC in hyperwhite LED.

Also note you can change the interior lighting in literally 2 minutes.

I'm thinking about going hyperwhite with the gauges, and then red with the HVAC, doors, and headlight switch. And probably blue with the Dome and reading lights... I think the slight blue, and red of the hyperwhite gauges will tie it all together..

I'm a fan of a clean look.. but i don't believe all one color is the only way to do that.. what i described above matches well and allows good view of gauges, as well as a good overhead lighting for viewing maps etc.. it was a good functional well matched layout..
