Default Replacements for Amber Interior Lighting

Gentlemen,

I have searched and searched and could not find an answer. I am trying to replace all the amber lights in the interior with white LEDs. However, I cannot locate the correct bulb size I need. Can someone please help and identify the following sizes:

Front overhead amber map lights
Amber door handle lights
Amber footwell lights (I believe it's a T5 and needs to be wired?)

Any info and assistance will be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks for the link. It doesn't list the lights I'm looking for but thanks for trying! I guess no one knows? I may have to tackle this on my own.

You can also look here: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cat/l...70--/33-606--/

But really it took me less than 60 seconds to find both sites. Google is your friend.

Those amber lights are custom-LED, there are no direct plug-n-play replacement. They're not your regular bulbs.

You'd have to buy your own LEDs and then rewire them into existing housing. It's not worth it in my opinion, but you can try.
