I too would like to know what bulb will fit the glove box. That will be the last of the interior lights for me to replace. It apprears that you'll have to remove the entire glove box assembly to change it though.
They haven't arrived yet. I got Hyper White incandescent bulbs instead of LED's. If I don't like them, I'll try some LED's next. Ill post before/after pics once I get them in today or tomorrow.
EDIT: The festoon bulbs I got are too big and don't work. The vanity bulbs are tiny and I don't know if we'll find anything whiter to replace them.

Im returning the festoons that I got because they are the wrong size and getting these today (the ones peterbanks is referring to). After taking the bulbs out and examining them and the fixture, I'm certain they will work. I'll post results.

How much brighter is the 5-LED than the stock light? It doesn't look like the 9-LED is smaller than the 12-LED so the trunk light cover still probably won't fit? The 12-LED really lights up the trunk, but the cover won't fit. I wonder how much the 5-LED lights up the trunK?
I wonder if I could get away with 1-LED for the license plate lights. I don't want to make any easier for cops to read my license at night.

Here are a few pics for comparison:
5 LED in Trunk
WLED-WHP
6 LED
I ended up using the WLED-WHP, brighter than the 5, better beam pattern than the 6, and fits no problem with the cover closed.
Stock License Plate:
1 LED
5 LED
I ended up using the 5's in the license plate.
