The dash uses 194's. The ones under the shifter, I believe are those itty bitty ones where I don't know the number.

for under the dash/floor lights.
I found bigger and brighter bulbs that fit inside the light socket. I cant quite remember number. but bulb size is about 2x bigger then the stock bulbs. I just get them at Canadian tire. I took the bulbs out from the cig tray area. if I knew you needed them I could have gave them to ya. I always found it kinda dumb place to put bulbs. |

I think the small bulbs are something like 74. Check

It's 2013... go LED. You can get modern LED replacement lights (in a variety of colours) through eBay shipped directly from Hong Kong and/or China for next to nothing. I recently got 10 of these red LED lights for $5.99 (which included shipping, no taxes or duty). I originally got them to try in the "FIERO" location on fastback GT tail lights, but haven't got around to that yet. In the meantime, just for fun I've used them in place of the interior lights that come on when the doors are opened.
The more LEDs mounted on each unit, obviously the brighter they will be (as well as costing more). And for a total of $2.19... I got two of this style for the rear license plate on my Hyundai Elantra. Being blueish white, and with all the LEDs pointing in the same direction, they're quite bright.
