Default Courtesy - Dome - Map Interior Light Bulb Information

Having bought the wrong bulbs based on stale info in other threads, I've added this thread so that others don't fall into this hole. (Yes, others have corrected this info, but those corrections are often buried deep in the other threads, so I am bringing it up here to the top level to help others.)

This courtesy - dome - map interior bulb is not the same as the festoon bulb used in glove box and trunk!

The correct bulb part number is 194, which has a wedge base.

FYI I switched to LEDs and am very pleased with the results. The light is now much brighter, but be aware that this bulb gives a cool white.

My choice was the Philips 194LED, which comes in a two pack for ~$11 from Amazon.
