Question Interior Light question

I have all of my interior bulbs replaced with Polarg Superwhite except the two up under the front footwells....where I've seen a couple folks on CL put neon.................I pulled these two bulbs a while back and have never seen this type before.

Does anyone know what size/designation these are????? I would like to have consistency throughout the inside of my car, and I REFUSE to put neon in a Lex. It looks like crap esp. at night when I open the doors and I have Superwhite (white/purplish) all through the car and then that ugly dingy yellow light showing how dirty my floor mats are

Help??

Eric

Eric, I spent months looking for that bulb. No can do. I just went ahead and pulled the bulbs out so they don't come on when the doors are opened. Hey, what's wrong with neon! Acually, I'm sure a stereo shop can mount a white LED bulb down below to turn on when the doors are opened. Just a thought...

Hey, what's wrong with neon!
Ken,
Don't get me wrong, I've seen interior pics of your car and and does look super sweet.......but it's just not for me. I have clients that I take to lunch, etc. so I can't do anything too out-there with my ride.

So, are you suggesting finding some LEDs and powering them from where the unidentifiable stock bulbs are?? That might work...hmmmmm.

kevs- the bulbs for the doors and rear overhead lights are just regular wedge bulbs - 194, I think????
