Default Interior Light Bulbs

Has anyone replaced the interior light bulbs with white bulbs?

I was thinking of replacing the door courtesy lights, the map/dome lights, the glove box light, and the lights in the footwells.

Any link or recommendation as to what bulbs to use would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Just google it and you will find a lot of led applications on them.
I think it feels a little spooky if all my interior lights are super white.

Talwang: Thanks for your reply. I wanted to see what other SC430 owners are using instead of the regular yellow lights. I couldn't find the bulb size for the lights in the footwells and the glove box.

I didn't mean i want them to be super white but just white, not the yellow ones that came with the car.

Thanks!

For wedge base bulbs like foot light and glove box light, it is better that you can go to a store to check it in person because the sizings are very confusing.

speaking on dome lights... On my 2003 SC the respective buttons don't quite turn the lights on/off... you need to wiggle them a bit, i had the same problem on my previous 2001 GS300. Is there any "tightening" that could be done to the button itself?
