Dome light bulb replacement
I know that the stock size of the festoon bulb is "3022" but when i ordered an LED one, it was too small. Has anyone ordered a LED dome bulb that fits snugly in the two metal clamps?

Don't buy one of those fat ones like I did. I melted my dome light and pretty sure the wiring, so now I don't have one.

The "fat ones" are really round, I found some blue ones, and they fit in the prongs. Left the door open and melted them. BTW is there any way to replace the wiring to the dome light?

There are several types in ebay but I do not know which one will be the best.
Here are some samples:







I do not think led lights will melt the dome cover but may be some one can clarify this.
