Default GS430 dome lights and map lights

I have ordered 194 leds for the doors, rear reading lights, and trunk. I have also ordered 74 leds for the footwells.

I do not want to put leds in the map lights and the dome lights.

What are the codes for those bulbs?

Also I am looking for a nice clean white/blue light output. Any suggestions on which bulbs to buy?

This is for a 03 GS430. Thanks.

I went ahead and placed an order

I bought a M16 Polarg bulb for the dome light and I bought a set of M17 polarg bulbs for the map lights.

Is this correct?

No one has advice for you because just a few threads up is a huge thread on interior lighting

None of them give direct answers. I have searched. There are conflicting answers from different people. I wanted to get to the route of the matter and I posted a very direct and simple question.

AnimalB, where are you purchasing the bulbs from? That auction site? I'm looking to upgrade my interior lighting as well. TIA.

I will let you know the name when the arrive....I forget off the top of my head. I did buy some LED's from superbrightled's.com and they were **** poor. I purchased the single LED 194 wedge bulb and it was no where near as bright as the OEM bulbs. I will let you know what everything looks like when I get them put in.
