I replaced both map lights and both door courtesy lights with the 5 LED bulbs. I used two 6 LED bulbs on the license plate and one in the trunk. I have PIAA Xtreme White bulbs for the driving lights but haven't had the chance to replace them yet. Changing them all out takes less than 5 minutes. I'd be glad to do it for you. They aren't much brighter than the stock bulbs but are pure white and not yellowish.
Did you change your parking light (city lights as Peterbanks called them)??
I definitely would like to change those to bright white to match the headlights. Pls tell me exactly what to order and how many. Oh yeah, and what website. I don't think I wanna bother you for replacing any of the other lights. (especially since I don't know what to buy in the first place hehe)

I will PM you with details of all the lights I have changed, which ones I used, and where to order them from. I'd be glad to change yours for you, it only takes a few minutes to do them all. I have the parking lights (city lights) but can't change them out because my hands are too big to fit. I'll get the dealer to do it for me when I go to pick upy plates.

Does anyone notice that the LED's in the map lights do not shut off completely after you have armed the alarm? The only way to shut them off is to have the switch in the "off" position. If you have it set to "door" they remain very dimly lit. Won't this drain the battery?

They are about halfway down the page. You want the "Vanity Mini 3 Led SMT Festoon" in size 31mm x 5mm
