Lots of good info, thanks.
I think I'm gonna leave the turn signals and brake lights alone for now, and maybe put some stealth bulbs in there until I feel like playing with them more. Sometime in the next week or so I will be ordering the LED bulbs for the interior, license plate, high mount stop light, and maybe the ones in the trunk lid.
SAMz, I really like the color and brightness of the bulbs you have here:

Where did you get them?

I love LEDs. I converted my explorer, and for such a little change, it is unbelievably satisfying. Really gives you an impression of being modern, and you can't complain about the instant on instead of the warm up of incandescent. YAY SAFETY!
The Bonneville will be the next to get an LED conversion. Will be going to the later style clear headlights later on too with a projector retrofit. Bi-Xenon HID in the low-beam and probably just do LEDs in the high beam and just change it to a daytime running light.

You might want to check out Oznium. I use the dome lights in my truck and they really light it up.

k heres how mine goes
Front turn signals
Rear turn signals one of the members mentioned that red could be illegal in some states for the rear turn signals, you might wanna look into that if you want the same setup as mine, i picked red so that itll match the bottom red, and i hate amber lol
Reverse light
Licence Plate & Glove compartment i wouldnt take a chance on buying something else for the licence plate light because i had 2 different ones and they didnt fit
Interior dome/map lights you will need 4 for the roof and 2 for the floor right next to your feet, the floor ones you have to solder a wire on the end of it to hang the bulbs. once you remove the bulbs you will understand what im talking about
Trunk light
Sun Visor this will blind the **** out of you at night when you first open it.. its nice though lol
Load equalizer needed when installing LED bulbs in front ONLY OR rear ONLY turn signals, you must tab it next to each bulb
Load equalizer needed when installing LED bulbs in front AND rear turn signals, you must tab it next to bulb on the front OR back only, not both i tabbed it to the back and used double sided tape to mount it on the body of the car, this way when you open the hood it doesnt show
keep in mind that some bulbs are sold as a pair and some are sold as singles, so keep yours eyes open
Again, this is not the only option, its just what i used and im more than satisfied with it
Hopefully i didnt forget anything, if i did or you have any questions please let me know.

im pretty sure front signal, rear signal, reverse & licence plate are the same
trunk, sun visor and interior lights might be different
IIRC my 97 bonneville had 194 bulbs interior lighting, but i could be wrong
someone with -99 bonneville will chime in soon
Anyone know the bulbs I would need to use to convert the interior lights to LED? I want to do the visor lights, the lights in the doors and the lights on the sides on top by the Oh **** Handles. I want all of them to be bright white. Any help would be great. I have a 99 Bonne.
