$54!  My inner CB is still sore about paying for a tank reseal.   I'll put that one on my "someday maybe" list.

Cheap when compared to the cost of a pump rebuild!

This is the one I had installed in mine.  I got blue to match the fuel colour.

Personal preference, but I find blue light to be really annoying at night.  I have no orange annunciator lights, that's why I picked that color.

Then wouldn't blue would be the perfect color?

That particular light is twist dimmable which is why I got it because I fly at night a lot.  It also comes in other colors besides blue.
