I have white ones right now and I'm looking for a change. Red LEDs would definitely match the SSIII interior, but I dunno if red would be too harsh of a color for the gauges. Blue would definitely be easier on my eyes. Who's got experience with either?

Think color waves. Red is lower on the spectrum, so your eyes won't strain to read. Blue is on the upper end and will be more difficult to see.
With that said, I had blue LED lights in all three Celicas I owned, but I'm going with white in the mr2 for the oem look. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
