4 - 194/168 - 2 map lights, 2 courtesy lights
1 - 44x10
www.superbrightleds.com
when you go there, they have a 6 led wedge for the 194, get that one, they claim its the brightest, you won't be disaapointed
make sure you get the 9 led 44x10 because i got the smaller one by accident and it didnt light up or stay in place very well, the longer one is way better
also if your doing your trunk, its also a 194 i believe, i'm actually posting pics tonight for everyone to see

you can also use a 921 led which has 9 leds as opposed to the 194 which has 6.
i have the 921 led's in my doors, map lights, reverse lights, and then i have a 9 led festoon bulb for the dome. next i need to do my glove box and license plate.
i got them from www.autolumination.com

i think theres 2 license plate lights. you can also change the front peanut bulb (where the amber reflector is) with the 921 led. it would probably only make sense if you have cleared headlights, though.

autolumination is way too expensive IMO.. 7 dollars PER bulb! http://www.superbrightleds.com .. way better prices, and their quality is good, i have them

well i just checked on the vanity bulbs, i dont know their exact size but its one of those cylinder type bulbs which are flat on the ends, im not sure if any LED out at either of the sites would fit in there, but ill be the guinea pig and find out unless someone has done it.

What is the correct led bulb for the dome light? The replacement part number for the dome light is only like 34 or 36mm (the piaa replacement bulb). Will the 44mm really fit and work?

do they have anything like they have here for the TL?
or do we have to buy separate.

well its not my first priority right now, so dont wait at the edge of your seat for me to do this, cause i have been busy lately, but i wanna tackle this soon.
i was just curious, cause it would be alot easier if the led's came all in one package like the link for the TL is.

To get to the bulb in the glove box you have to take it apart like you would do to change your cabin filter, its a bitch. You can also change the vanity lights to Led. I bought mine on Ebay.( V-led is the store) Not to sure on how to get to the bulb in the arm rest.
