They are festoon ones, 39mm if I remember correctly, I replaced the boot and the roof tent ones with these ...

Check yours before you order to ensure they are the smaller ones.

The roof one is a bit of a squeeze and you end up putting the smt board sideways but it still throws out tons of Light.

The front interior light ones are the holderless ones like these ...

Again, throw out tons of light!

Shout and I can post some pics if you need them.

The fronts are wedge type 501's (sidelight bulbs)

Plenty have fitted the SMD type LED lamps from Japan, super bright! Though some have failed quite early on, and others are still going strong... :D
