matplotlib - color of a 3D surface plot in python

I'm using following line for plotting a 3D surface:

surf = ax3.plot_surface(X, Y, Z, rstride=1, cstride=1, alpha=0.5, linewidth=0, cmap=cm.jet,antialiased=True)

Now the color comes very nice, although a bit scaly appearance, though fine.
But I want to change the surface color w.r.t. another data, stored in list as:

m = [104.48, 111.73,109.93,139.95,95.05,150.49,136.96,157.75]

I was trying with:

norm = cls.Normalize() # Norm to map the 'm' values to [0,1]
norm.autoscale(m)
cmap = cm.ScalarMappable(norm, 'jet')
surf = ax3.plot_surface(X, Y, Z, rstride=5, cstride=5, alpha=0.5, linewidth=0, color=cmap.to_rgba(m), antialiased=True)

But this is raising an error as cmap.to_rgba takes 1D arrays only. Any suggestions on how can I be able to change the colormap of the surface would be highly appreciated.

Well, it looks awful but I think you can adapt it:

from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
from matplotlib import cm
from matplotlib.ticker import LinearLocator, FormatStrFormatter
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.gca(projection='3d')
X = np.arange(-5, 5, 0.25)
Y = np.arange(-5, 5, 0.25)
X, Y = np.meshgrid(X, Y)
R = np.sqrt(X**2 + Y**2)
Z = np.sin(R)
my_col = cm.jet(np.random.rand(Z.shape[0],Z.shape[1]))

surf = ax.plot_surface(X, Y, Z, rstride=1, cstride=1, facecolors = my_col,
        linewidth=0, antialiased=False)
ax.set_zlim(-1.01, 1.01)

result plot I would not use jet but some linear colormap like cubehelix. You can trick the eye easily using the wrong colormap (one of many posts on that topic)
