LED Interior Lights for ES330. Any advice appreciated!
Hey there!
I'm currently in the process of replacing the standard bulbs in my 2005 ES with LEDs. I'm buying from v-leds.com.
I followed the link to sylvania.com and found the bulb numbers for the car and have ordered LEDs for the dome light, trunk, and map lights.
What I'm having a little trouble with is the courtesy lights. I'm looking at two different types, both of which by physical appearance LOOK like they could fit where the current bulbs are, but I'm not certain.
I don't want to order anything unless I'm certain.
The first light I'm looking at matches both the bulb number (2825) and the common part number (194):

The second light I'm looking at matches the common reference number but not the bulb number:

I'm sorry if it's a stupid question (I'm new to this)--but what's more important here? Matching the bulb number exactly or matching the common part number? The second LED matches all the same numbers as the first one except there's a "2821" in there instead of "2825". Both LEDs have nearly the same dimensions.
Would it be a mistake to order the second LED? If so, does the first LED look like it would be a good fit for courtesy lights or should I look at something else?
