I was planning to change these dome lights as it is the same one for the door lights that lit up when you open the door, I just havent got the chance to measure the length of the dome light which could be 1.25 in or 1.5 in.

well after you measure it out.. tell us. it seems like the Xenon Super White Festoon Dome Light Bulbs will look the best. (the last one on http://autolumination.com/festoon.htm) only $1.50. pretty cheap

On the replacement bulbs, the stock light does appear pretty weak--has anyone ordered a replacement. Based on the cross-reference chart, it looks like the 3022 , 1.25 inch (31MM) is the correct bulb size. Which one should throw off the most light, the 6 LED, the Xenon or something else?

So I did a search and learned something new. Thanks guys.

However I was able to fit 36mm in there. (I dont recommend this size though).

If you want to convice yourself, you can leave the trunk
pass-thru open and check by looking from inside the car.
No need to get inside the trunk to do this - hehe
