Default LED Bulb Replacements

What is the Bulb #'* for the 2000 SSEI'* interior? Anyone know? Gonna replace them with LED bulbs...but not wanting to go through the huge trouble of making my own bulbs when you can just buy the bulbs already made.

Which bulbs specifically are you referring to? LED'* are not really classified as bulbs, and won't fit into lamp sockets (interior lighting) I don't think.

Woah cool.... didn't know they made interior LED bulbs.

That one pictured above... it doesn't have the "hooks" will you still be able to use it in the overhead map/dome lights... I know in my 97 it needs the hooks.

Anyone know what bulb type it is for the interior door lights... it'* slightly smaller then a 194... and if they make an LED for it?

Arm yourself with a list of the standard bulb part numbers for your car and check out LEDtronics' incandescent-to-LED cross reference database, linked somewhere on their page:

http://www.ledtronics.com

The only caveat is that they apparently have minimum orders to order wholesale -- but perhaps they can refer you to a retailer, or someone can convince DeathRat to carry them.

Yeah, ok. I didn't realize they made LED'* adaptable for use as direct replacements for incandescent lamps. I'm definitely behind the times here. Thanks alot for the info.
