Ok, I promised I would post this in here. Attached is a list of the items I can get you. The cold cathodes have a life expectancy of 30,000 hours before dimming to half there brightness.
Cold Cathodes:
Colors Available: Black/UV, Blue, Red, Green, White, Yellow, Purple.
4" Tube, with Dual Inverter: $10
4" Tube: $4
6" Tube, with Dual Inverter: $12
6" Tube: $5
12" Dual Tubes, with Dual Inverter: $17
12" Tube, with Dual Inverter: $13
Dual Inverter means you can hook two single tubes to it. For instance, you could buy a 6" Tube with Dual Inverter for $12 and add another 6" tube for $5.
I can get the tubes in multi color as well, Blue/Green, Red/Yellow, Red/Green, Blue/Yellow, Red/Green/Blue.
Light Emitting Diodes:
Colors Available: Blue, Red, Green, UV
Lazer LED Canon: Ultra-bright LED mounted in a clear tube. Essentially a mini spot light. $3.50
All items are designed to run on 12 volt systems. LED's willl have resistors pre-soldered for ease of installation.
Some items may require you to extend the wires for your application. Ends will be bare wire unless you require items for computer system use, then they will have Molex connectors on the ends.
Payment may be made by credit or debit card through PayPal. You may also pay with money orders through bidpay, at www.bidpay.com.
I do not have the space to keep an inventory yet, so items are ordered from the manufacturer after you pay me. It takes the manufacturer approximately 48 hours to get them to my door.

Uhm...
I'm intrested.
Blue tubes.
What's power consumption like on these compared to LED's and incandecents?
I'd want 3 inverters and 6 tubes.
Maybe 4 inverters and 8 tubes.
6 inch tubes. Let me know man. If you want, look me up on IM and we'll talk.
EDIT: How's the brightness on these?

they are very bright if they are the same kind u can get from www.xoxide.com. i hooked them up to my computer and they lit up the whole room.
so java, can you get virtually anything off that site for cheaper than they offer it? is this what the laser led looks like? 
how big are they and are they bright to the point that u cant look directly at them(cause thats what i want) :twisted: ?
also, how much for the leds?

Yes, those are almost the same thing as the lazer led cannons I can get. It's hard to take a picture of them, but they are friggin bright! That one there looks like it only swivels up and down, mine are on a ball swivel, so there is full freedom of movement. The only problem with them is you have to solder a resistor in there to take it down from 12v to 5v, but as soon as I get over to Radio Shack and grab some resistors it won't be a problem. You asked how much for LED's, do you mean plain LED's? What color?

I'd still like to see some brightness comparison shots.
And, if you can, stick a 6 inch in the front and rear under one of the seats and take some pictures of it on. Blue of course. I wanna see how well that covers. If not good enough, I might TRY a 12. Do they make 4's?

u are right. the led canons only swivel up and down. im thinking of maybe getting some of these to fix my neverending struggle with trying to get my needles bright, just wondering if they are to big to stick in the cluster or not. i was asking about blue leds also.
