Little confused in this thread, I'm wanting to change the bulbs in the headliner, just the fronts for now, 1 not sure how many bulbs are in there? The ones that come on when the door opens and also 2 map reading ones? Is this correct? 2 not sure the type I need or the best K, 3 do they have to be canbus free and 4 anyone got any pictures of an all LED interior?

Thanks :D
