dome light bulbs?

anyone know exactly what type of bulbs are the dome lights inside the car? Since the car is white and blue inside, I might want to change them to white to match everything inside of the BORING yellowish standard bulbs. Since they couldn't match the buttons.

The dome lights are 12V 10W bulbs. Just remove them and show the bulb to a car store that sells bulbs. They should know what bulb to replace. I changed my dome lights(3) to Super White the week after buying the car in April. You can also replace the 2 lights on the front and passenger doors. I changed them to blue to match the other interior lights. You could even replace the trunk light bulb too, I changed mine to blue.

Which blue lights did you get for the doors, and is the shade of blue the same? The ones ihave in my door are more of a greeny blue, im looking to buy ones that match the LED colour closer...

Actually the dome lights are 12V 8W bulbs. I've had a hard time finding the "blue" fuse type bulbs to replace them. I got some 10W but they burned out in about 2 minutes.

Where did you find your bulbs?

The one's I got are bright blue....almost bluer than the stock you see in the TSX. I got mine at Pep Boys. I live in Newington, CT (near Hartford), so I'm not sure how available they are in other parts of the country.
