Hi guys!
I'm about to replace my tail lights' bulbs, but can't find the size or application bulb. I know it is a double filament wedge type, but I'm not sure about the size, also are they supossed to be red or white? I'm getting a LED replacement. Also, does anybody know the size of the dome, map and trunk lights? Trying to get LEDs for those too!

Thanks in advance!

For the Liftback, the bulb number for the stop/tail is 7443
dome and map are DE3022 and DE3175, but I'm not really sure which is which
Trunk is DE3022

I wouldn't really recommend LED pnp bulbs in the tails... our tails use clear face lenses with multi-point parabolic reflectors... LED bulbs tend to look like ass in this type of application, and may not provide nearly enough illumination.
