Default Interior LED's

I'm curious, what type of LED's/ size variations do our cars interiors take? I've searched the forums, but can't seem to find any info. Thanks!

exactly what are you asking about? like dome lights?
or more like gauges, hvac, radio... etc?

because some are bulbs you can replace with led ones..
and the remaining are surface mount ones that require soldering rework.

Well mainly dome lights, I have no desire to go ripping my dash and gauges apart just for color effect! Lol, One particular bulb is the small one underneath the HVAC controls/ the storage area. It seems to be a tiny filament type bulb, but I can't tell for sure. I'm also having a hard time trying to locate LED bulbs for the dome lights. Any suggestions?

go to ebay motors.

Search for "scion tc LED dome light"

then search "scion tc cubby bulb"

if you can't find what you want on ebay... put these searches in google. I'm sure your bound to find something.... its only the internet.

I'm sure this guy appreciates the links, but what was in the question was what SIZES?

and i've visited these sites and yes that have hundreds of lights and features and so on,
but they asked (( what type of LED's/ size variations do our cars interiors take? ))

answer that, because i would of order some myself it someone would just write down
"this spot takes so and so size LED's" and "the rear left lights take so and so size also called blah blah blah model"

Its just not simply written down anywhere, and the sites dont' say, for Scion click from this list.
