NO OFFENCE
okay
straight up NO offense
BUUUUUUTTTTT i put an LED bulb in my interior light and i hated it!!! i wanna pull it out n revert back to the normal type ...
..normal filament globes just give off a warm loving light.. the LED however... is just garbage.. unless i replace it with an amber colour?
but right now it's a white LED and it's just such a cold, clinical unforgiving shade of "white"
:/
aside from that everything else looks fantastic.. like dash lights and gearstick lights look great!
just - i cannot stand my interior light personally

I updated the sizes of the bulbs on my first post!
Yeah, it does feel a bit "clinical". But works for me whenever I drop something on the floor or working in my car at my pitch dark parking spot.

When you remove the cover, you'll find a fuse type bulb being held by 2 fork type terminals, upper and lower part where the contact point's are. The bulb I chose is the closest size to it. Although when you try to squeeze it between the terminals it's too fat so it just keeps on popping out. But when you put the cover over it it will keep the festoon bulb in place.

I didn't take any of the dash out, because during this time I didn't know how to take it apart yet. I just lifted the part covering the key cylinder and worked on it from below. There's only one screw for the transparent part of it, once you get to remove it you can take the key cylinder apart in 2 pieces to be able to access where the bulb is plugged.
