Ended up buying a 31mm for both the centre and boot lights. Got from ebay a 12 SMD LED White Dome light for both. It definetly needs minor fiddling to fit inside the holders, but it will fit.

In terms of visibility or light output for the boot, its bright and fully lights up my boot. And in terms of inside the car better than the OEM orange colour. Found it pleasing and easy mod. Thanks for the idea ^_^

So far, so good with my interior LEDs. My map lights are a bit bluer than my dome light, but overall they work quite well.

Hey guys, can you guys recommend me some replacement leds for the map lights and the dome lights? Are there any other lights that I should look to replace with LEDS? Should I go for blue (for the awesomeness) or white? Thanks

Thanks heaps man, I have a couple of more questions.

People are talking about installing a LCD strip into their boot, is this an easy install? And is it possible to change the light which lights up the number plate to another colour such as blue?

I got a 16w blue led dome light bulb, and its been working fine for a few months now, only problem it was too big for the casing and the plastic melted while i was soldering
