Footwell bulb is #74, just like it is for most (all?) the other models.
Door (courtesy) and trunk lights are #194.
Dome light is DE3175.
Map light is DE3021

I'm not 100% sure on this, but if it's like the configuration as my 1st gen LS, then it should be the same as the map light bulb....so, DE3021. If you could get the bulb out and take a pic of it, I could tell you.

Edit: Nevermind....I just read in your other post that you're looking for the light that goes on when you open the door...I thought you were talking about the map lights.

The light that you're talking about IS a 194 bulb...sorry for the confusion.

Hope this helps.. this listing is for a '96, but I don't expect that there would be much of a diff w/ the different model years...

Ok i just got my lazy self up and went out and took out all the bulbs to find out what they are.

Front dome=3022 31mm length type
Rear map lights are also same type of bulb 3022, they are just run on lower wattage but they are the exact same type.
Footwell and glove box are both #74


as for the front map light i can't figure out what they are. it looks like a mini 1156/1157 bulb

Can someone update this with a wiring diagram for 1GS headlights?

What I am trying to figure out is which wire gets +12v on the 9005 connector when the high beams are actuated. I will use this +12v as input on my aftermarket BiXenon HID harness to trigger the high beam.

Thoughts?

You can try V-LEDS.com website to order your replacements. I've also heard that other CL members ordered their leds from an oversea vendor on Ebay(forgot the name though !) Good lucks !!
