Hi guys,

Forgive me if this has been covered previously, but I couldnt find the answers anywhere on here.

I want to change all of my interior lights to white LED, but I'm hoping someone has a list of all the types of globes I need so I dont go pulling the car apart unnecessarily.

There are:

2 x Vanity mirror lights

2 x Front Door lights

4 x Roof mounted map reading lights

1 x Rear light above drive shaft tunnel

Does anybody know what types of globes these are? Any tips of removing the roof mount lenses?

Thanks in advance.

Can't remember the globes.. But there is an eBay seller who can give you perfect fit ones for the FG..

Use a flat head screwdriver to pop out the roof ones.. I wrapped the end with a bit of glad wrap so it didn't scratch anything.

Type w5w led into eBay.

Look for the ones with 6 or more leds, facing all directions so that it uses the reflectors and isn't so unidirectional.

That's for the 4 roof lights anyway. Oh yeah, insert the screw driver on the side towards the centre of the car, and centred in the cover from front to back.

Can't help with the other ones, pov pack for me.

(dont forget the one in the boot)

The LED's you are chasing for map lights are BA9S T4W 5SMD LED's (x3).

I think there is one in the glove box also.

You will need to reverse the wiring polarity on the glove box fitting.

The ones in the doors are 36mm festoon globes (x2) and the one in the rear center floor and boot are 42mm festoon. (x2)

You will also need some 5SMD T10 W5W 5050.

Don't forget one under dash on driver side foot well.(x5)

Buy more then you require as a couple extra is always good.

Search for them on EBay from china sooo much cheaper for the same product.

If you find a way to do the key hole post it up as only one I have not done.

The bulb for drivers footwell is obscured by the fuse cover. if you want more light cut the plastic out of the way with a hacksaw blade.

Makes a big difference.
