Default LED Interior Light Bulb Sizes

I have 2011 ES350 and I want to replace all the standard interior and door mirror puddle light bulbs to LED.

Are the map lights, dome light, doors, trunk and mirror puddle lights all 168/194’s? And what size are the vanity mirror bulbs? I’ve researched but came up with a few different sizes so I just want to make sure before ordering.

Puddle lights/door bottom lights are T10. For the interior lights I don't have that information because mine is 2007.

So I've replaced all the interior bulbs, door and mirror puddle light bulbs with 5000K 194 LED's.

But does anyone know the rear dome light bulb size? This is the only one that's not a 194 style bulb.

Now I have an issue where both front door courtesy/puddle lights don’t turn on when unlocking the car but they do turn on when the doors open. The rears work as they should with lighting up when the car is unlocked and the doors are open though.

For the rear dome I could not find an exact size replacement for LEDs.
The closest I found at Autozone was the Sylvania DE3175 (They state it's also compatible with DE3021/DE3022)

I am attaching a few pictures, hopefully they get posted.
There's clearly a slight difference in length, but if you bend the thin plates of metal where the bulb seats, you can make it fit almost effortlessly.

Hope this helps someone

These were hard for me. I almost broke the sunglass compartment with my disassembly attempt.
I googled on how to remove bulbs on tight spaces and they suggested duct tape.
It continued to slip on me, but it started to leave some glue residue on the bulb with every try and that's how I was able to remove those bulbs with just the fingers.

I am sure there should be a way to remove the entire dome enclosure, but I have not found anything yet.
