LED Dome light

Have done my research on LED replacements for courtesy/map lights, but there seem to be dissenting opinions on the dome and trunk light? Can we use festoon bulbs there, or should I just order the wide angle 6-led bulbs that I am using in my courtesy (door) lights for the trunk and dome? I plan on ordering from superbrightleds.com

I put in a Festoon LED bulb.

Cant really speak to reliability yet (just put them in yesterday). Looks great. You might want to buy a 6 led vs a 4. Mine throws light well, but could be better.

Super White 194 Superstar Bulbs. Both 9 and 10 mm should work. Really bright and white light.

for the map lights, trunk lights, and courtesy lights (knee level on the doors) then 194 is the bulb youre looking for. for the dome light though, you need to use a festoon bulb. if i remember correctly, it's a 31 mm festoon bulb, because anything longer won't fit. try measuring it yourself though to make sure. hope this helps!
