Default changing to leds, but footlight spec,, ?

i changed door courtesy light to leds and look kool, but can't figure out what led bulbs to get for footlights? on manual it says 194 (same as door courtesy) but lesser 1.4 watt. i pulled one out and it's tiny bout half size as door courtesy.

has anyone changed and bought the leds for these, if so where?

posting the year of your car would be a smart thing to include....

95-00 are #74 bulbs for the 2 footwell lights.

I changed mine to LED awhile back. Just be very careful pulling out the sock bulbs. Tiny and can can break in socket. I did have issue with getting the LED to stay in at first wanted to fall out. Kept at it have to twist it in some to make it stay.

No issues so far. Swapped most of the them out except for key,shifter and glove box light.

I never have taken any. I will do that this week and post them. I will say the dome light makes the biggest difference.

i have leds throughout my celsior, its t5 / 74 for the foot wells, festoon for the r00f light, t5 / 74 for the ignition, t10 / 194 doors / license plate lights... for pretty much everything else, there is one other type of bulb ba9s I think for the personal map lights beside the cargo festoon on the roof.
