EXACT bulb model

Ok, I want to replace my front turning indicator bulbs as well as the running light in the other half of the assembly.

I also want to replace my interior dome and foot well lights with whiter bulbs.

The question is this, I cannot seem to find the EXACT model number to replace those bulbs. Is it the 9003, 9004, 9005, 9006, H7, H11?

For the interior, what numbers should I look for on the packaging?

Thank you!

P.S. PIAA Extreme white or Sylvania Silverstars are the ones I'm looking for!

The footwell lights are 94Wedge. I believe the turn signals are the same.

I dug through all the empty boxes in my garage and found the boxes of the lights I have installed on my car.

My turn-signals are Sylvania Silverstars, the size is 1156. They look GREAT!

The other wedge bulbs are all 194's
wedge bubls include: driving lights (lights that share the same housing as turnsignals), footwell lights, map lights, and sidemarker lights, and I think the glovebox light.

I am not sure what size the Dome and trunk light are (same size), and I REALLY REALLY need to know. I, however, do know that they are NOT 211-2's.

As far as brands go: I highly recomend Sylvania Silverstars, PIAA,and Varad.

DO NOT get the 3A Racing Platinum Metal Racing Series as they just plain suck!

Anyways, I hope I was of some help.

glovebox, dome, and boot lights are all festoons. I believe they're 36mm.

Don't know,but at autolumination you can get 36mm LED festoons. They're not really bright, though. I have blue and they're ok, but I wish they were brighter.

hmm, at cardomain.com i cant find any 36mm... I guess ill have to try the 40mm.

I guess i was wrong, 211-2's may just work (as long as they arent the ones from 3A Racing)

4. They also have LED's for the footwells. All colors, color changing lights, and even blacklights (which are very hard to see).

I think im going to get the 6 LED festoons for the dome and trunk.

I am also looking at autoluminations LED tailight bulbs. I think they would look really really cool.


FYI: The MINI tailight system is comprised of 3 bulbs per side, they are 1156a in size and white in color.
