LED dome light sizes

What are the dome light festoon bulb sizes in a 99-07 truck? I have searched and found 2 sizes and I wasn't sure which one had either 2 of the same and 1 of the other or if all 3 are the same. I have been looking inti installing new leds.

They should be 39mm. Just pull one out of your console and measure it. Probably 1.55ish".

The cheaper route: I have these in my Excursion, very bright... You get 6 festoons for under $14

I also have a few of these in the Excursion, even brighter but more expensive: Each bulb is almost $4

Either way you will be happy switching them out.

The festoons are the 39mm they should all be the same in your truck, you may want to double check first. The last link I gave you will have the festoon adapter in included with the light, like I said you will only get one bulb for around $4 though. Those are the only two types I would recomend. Pick whichever you want, they will both work, at least they did in my truck.

Cool, just check the number of bulbs in your light and order that number of new ones. Probably 3 but yours may be a little different. Post up some pics before and after.

Here you go, this is for one. You will have to enter the quantity that you want (2) in the little box. They are coming from Hong Kong so it does take a week or so to get them in.

If you prefer to buy American these are in Cali but I'm pretty sure they all come from the same place... 3 times as much as the first link though.

Agreed... Let me know if you have any other questions. I've been swapping in led's for years on all my vehicles. I've switched out the glove box, license plate, running boards and reverse lights on my Excursion. There are a ton of lights on these things.

Will do! I'm in the process of doing all that as well, I was going to try and change my interior lights to blue but I found out itssomewhat complicated to get the gauge needles back on so now I'm skeptical about it.

Where did you get your 08 center console? I can't find one anywhere. Also how did the 08 door panels turn out? Do you have a thread on that?

I found d it on eBay a few months ago for 200 it came out of a new tow truck it was a steal because they are usually more expensive lol it was one of the best things I've ever gotten it is so much bigger than the jump sear I never used lol. I have not put the panels in yet I put it in my signature but I'm hopefully going to do it soon and ill take plenty of pictures lol. I still need the driver side switches and the tweeter mounts and then ill be good to go.
