    I believe this is the same one I already have here is a description from that exact one

    LED Light Color: Dual LED,power on,turns green,push on,turns blue.

    since the lights are off most of the time but the switch is powered on it will be green most of the time.

    With this layout, you will have to remember the "inverted function" of the buttons, (out = on and in= off). But you get the color scheme you wanted. Blue is off and green is on.
    However, if you end up not liking the inverted functions, just move the feed to your light bar back to the N.O. contact on your relay. Then in= on and out = off, but your colors scheme will go back to blue is on and green is off.
