Need some help with interior lighting

Hey guys I had a questions about my 2002 4.4l x5. I know that there is two different fittings of lighting inside. Can someone tell me the codes or id numbers for both the dome lights and the long (license plate) lights. If you guys have some links to an trusted ebay seller for the led versions of these lights LMK. Really appreciate it guys.

Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
All of the festoon LED's on the inside/under doors/front footwells/vanity lights are 37mm.

The rear footwell lights (lights under the rear seats) are 42mm festoon.

The rest of the bulbs are 194 wedge bulbs, including license plate lights, rear hatch lights, dome lights, and puddle lights on the mirrors.

The ONLY BULBS MONITORED BY THE CANBUS AND MUST BE ERROR FREE are the license plate lights and the puddle lights on the mirrors. The rest can be regular SMD LED bulbs.

Count your lights up and order them off amazon, ebay etc. Here is a set (although I don't normally recommend buying pre-made "sets")

The only things I want to change is the interior lighting like the foot wells the dome lights, and the license plate lights. which lights would I need then because I seem to be a little confused.
