Bump. OK i bought a pair of LED interior lights from ebay but then the funniest thing happened. The dome lights (both front and rear) wouldnt turned completely off when I closed the door. They just turned very very dim.. but not completely off.
I waited for about 15 minutes but they were still on.
The only way to turned them completely off is by locking the door.. eventhough they took 5 seconds longer than other lights to shut down.
Now, the bigger problem is, they're also on (again, very dim) when the engine is running, no matter what. I guess I'm gonna have to change them back to halogens.

For BIX headlights 2004.5 and up (depending on production date), the turn signals are most likely 2357-A (A just signifies amber).

Some 2004.5 models (like mine) and before w/ BIX headlights have 1156 blinkers.
