u mean the map light illumination? yes there is but you will need to take apart the whole map assembly and solder a new brighter LED on it.

Those are the "Ambient Lighting" LEDs, not the map/dome lights.
They are SMD LEDs that are soldered directly onto the circuit board. I looked at replacing them when I did my Homelink buttons, but left them alone since they are intended to be a low light application.
If you do replace them, make sure you check the resistor values (resistors are soldered onto the circuit board) and replace them, if necessary.
IMO, replacing these is a waste of time and energy. If you have to replace the resistors, it really falls into the category of "more trouble than its worth".
