For the dome light, I installed a PIAA T-6 bulb. It's not as big as the stock bulb but fits just fine. And for the door lights, reading lights, trunk light, and rear plate light, I used the PIAA 19169 bulbs. The only interior light that I have never been able to replace is the visor/vanity mirror lights. Those things are so small that I'm guessing they'll never make PIAA's in that size. I know others have used other bulbs like M-4 and M-6 I think instead of PIAA's so you could do a search for lights or check out Chod's excellent FAQ, link below.

He's got basically everything you'll ever need to know covered in that.



Here's the section from Chod's FAQ that you need:


Recommended bulbs for internal lights?
Example sets used by people:
Dome light: Polarg M16 or Minimax bulb (Part no: MX-3175)
Polarg M4: Trunk lights, license plate lights
Polarg M4 or PIAA 69 for Door Lamps and Map Lights,
Reverse Lamp: M2 or M13 (M13 is dual-element so brighter but more expensive)
Turn signals (1157 type bulbs): Polarg M12
