Default Map Light Bulb Type

Does anyone know the type of bulb that is in the front map lights? The Sylvania guide lists the dome lights as 3175's, but the map lights up front are totally different than the dome lights in the rear.

They are just large Dome light Bulbs, 31 mm I think.

This isnt a pic that I took but after looking at the bulb I'm pretty sure its one of these - a BA9S bulb. The GS has them in the map lights as well.
