Found these on an earlier post. 39mm High Powered 8 Led SMT Festoon.

From, autolumination.com Festoon Dome Lights

Ordered them Sunday AM had tracking info that evening, got them yesterday.

Snap right in, no error codes. Their website may not be an artistic masterpiece
but the price is right and service very good.

Per the earlier thread I see many members with a positive experience.

Glad they worked for you too!!

To all, just keep in mind that LED bulbs do have a polarity. If you install and they do not work, flip them around.

sorry to sound naive, but which bulbs do these replace?

I would like to replace the lights under the side view mirrors with LED's - would these work? If not, what size is needed?

Thanks!
