Or Try this guy:

The 578 bulbs also called "festoon bulbs"

do a search on his page for 578 - brings up all the 578 bulbs and colors

For my 2008 2Dr Rubicon, I used a 4210-xhp6 in warm white for $14.95 from superbrightleds web site. You need the 42 (mm) to insure it fits in the festoon clip. It is about 2-3 times brighter than the stock bulb.

Do you have a pic of the warm white? I'm torn between cool and warm. I want a brighter dome light to find things and read a map on the trail, but love the cool white glow.

Anyone done their license plate? I'm ordering my dome light now and want to get a plate light too. There are like 7 different kinds and I don't want to get one that does not emit the proper light?!?
