I've heard some say they use blue rope lights. You can even get those @ Wal-Mart, I think.
 
Try the Fry's Electronic store. Actually I bought some LED canopy fans, and they are pretty bright. Didn't even have to add any additional LEDs.
 
Yeh, the best I have found retail are at Fry's Electronincs...

And these thing are something like 10,000 mcd.
 
There's a thread in the DIY section about LED lighting...there are some sources as well as some lessons learned. Check it out.
