HID/LED serial numbers needed
Can someone please tell me what the serial numbers are for the interior LED lights on a 2002 TL-S? I want to change them from the stock lights to blue... Also the front HIDs like on this ABP TL :

The blue sidemarker lights... Are those HID?? If not, can you get them in HID? How much do they run, and where's a reputable/reasonable place to buy them from?

map and door bulbs are 192/168s, but the bigger 921/906s will fit. not sure about the dome, but you should just measure them and crossreference the size with the numbers.
The front sidemarker (I assume you mean these in the picture: sidemarker - HID - highbeam -- grill -- highbeam - HID - sidemarker) are 1157s. Those in that ABP TL are "hyperwhite/superwhite" incandescent bulbs. THey shine regular incandescent yellow, but the blue transparent coating on the bulb "cancels out" the yellow to make the bulb appear white. I'm pretty sure they don't make those in HID, but you can get those in LED although the turn signals will need a resistor in each to act as a "load equalizer"
I get my LEDs and hyperwhite bulbs from www.autolumination.com.

HID is not just a lightbulb. You need to have other parts to generate the light (ballast and ignitors). It would be cost prohibitive and it isnt even good to turn HID lights on and off repeatedly (like how a turn signal would).
