So basically I have the following in my .vimrc
set listchars=tab:>-,trail:-,eol:$
But it's slightly intrusive in the colour it is at the moment (dark
blue), and I was wondering if there was any easy way to set it to
something less overt, for example dark grey (I use a dark background).
Thanks!

You may place them in your vimrc, or (maybe better) in a newly-created
colourscheme: start with whatever colourscheme you're already using,
copy it under a different name (but keeping the .vim extension) to
~/vimfiles/colors (on Windows) or to ~/.vim/colors (on Unix), then add
the above lines. If you aren't using any colorscheme yet, you can use
the folowing as a source of inspiration, change it to your heart's
delight (and see ":help :colorscheme" about how to invoke it):
