01 dome and map led swap

[01thunder]

i read alot of write ups for 98's and older but how about for 99 and up? i want to swap the domes and maps for led's. i have seen the festoon bulb as well as the panel with festoon adapter.

who has done this swap and what works? like some or most, i have spent on trial and error bulbs with some working, some not. so what exactly do i need for these applications, as well as for the shifter light and license plate?

Nice font... try using the search function this has been covered 8 million times. Its not that hard to pop of the map/dome light and see what kind of bulb it is, i don't understand why people keep asking this.

Here is where I ordered my parts:

Dome lights: Oznium.com: $35
Flexible 5mm LED Dome Light
Each LED comes with a set of ‘dummy bulbs’ with easy plug-in wiring to the LED board. These things are crazy bright!

Dash Lights: Autolumination.com: $55
Autolumination Instrument Panel Light Bulbs & Lamps)
--For the 2002’s, almost of all the bulbs you need are #74’s. The climate control uses a few Neo-wedge bulbs.
ECT/rear window:2x Neo-wedge type A
Climate controls:3x Neo-wedge type B
Gauges: 3x #74 (#24) Matrix 5-LED (Type 1; with 3 LED on top, 2 on sides)
Key ring:1x #74 Single LED Superstar
Glove box light: 1x #74 Any style that is narrow
Tranny Shifter:1x #74 Any style that is narrow (Note: there is a green film on inside the shifter, so a white light here did not change the color)
Ash Tray Light:1x #74 Matrix 3-LED (Note: my ashtray light is used in the stereo pocket)
