I'm about to post up a DIY in a few days for the custom CCFL lighting install in the footwells. I just installed my alarm and took a bunch of pictures, just need to compile all the pix.

That thread is outdated and the list is for Polarg bulbs. It isn't very useful for people who want to convert to LEDs. I had to figure out everything by myself when switching to interior LEDs.

There are a more than a few threads on LED bulbs for the footwell and overhead dome/map light housing. It may take some time, but its been done...believe me.
