The foot well bulbs are W5W or 192 bulbs. The front doors take the 192 as well. The dome lamps take 212.

So you can't use the Hoen City Light/Wedge Bulbs from your store Ken? Thought that was what they were for.
On your sight they say they are 194 bulbs. Does the LS year make a difference? Your store doesn't say the Hoen's are for 2003+ or any year.
Let us know. Thanks.

192 and 194 are the same bulb. The Hoen's will work on the doors and foot well areas. However, Hoen doesn't make 212 bulb for the dome lights.highlander73 said:
I looked at the 2006 LS owner's manual and it states that the dome lights are a 906 bulb but did not state what bulbs were in the doors. I'm assuming it's the 194 bulbs as well.

where would you be able to get differant lights for those? I have seen people that have had blue lights on the inside instead of the normal ones that are yellow. That would be a nice small feature to have.

Yeah i was thinking the same, that it would be a cool feature, i like the hyper white ones to match the headlights...

Before I started selling the Hoen bulbs, I bought my interior bulbs off of eBay. I just typed in the bulb type plus Xenon. You won't believe how many bulbs will come up.

get Varad lights, they are the BEST! they are like a little chip instead of an actual bulb and i dont think they will ever burn out like the cheap colored bulbs i had in before that burned out in 5 minutes... cardomain.com sells them but they are kinda pricey, they have blue, yellow, red, and white i believe... i got blue in my LS and it looks awesome... i also bought white ones for the little license plate lights in the back, that looks better than the orangey ones in there before IMO... check em out!

Try http://autolumination.com/ for some neat blubs and cross references.
I think W5W = 168 = 192.
FYI, I tried a pair of "xenon" look bulbs in the footwells of my car. They were 168 bulbs I bought at Walmart on a whim. But, I didn't like the blueish look in the interior. I have a Camel interior and the blue didn't go, so I switched back to the stock bulbs. I ended up installing the blue xenon 168 bulbs in the license plate lights to match the rest of the outside lighting.
BTW, all the bulb requirements are in the manual. You did look in the manual, didn't you?
