How to change interior light bulbs in doors?
I also ordered the 6k Authentic Philips Ultinon 6000K D2S Bulbs from Autoluminate on eBay ($203.99; expensive, but who cares). Should be here any day now.
For the LED's (eBay - Lot of 10 194/168/158 White High-Power LED Lights Bulbs - $38.98) or from http://www.hid-lights.com (click on miniature bulbs; you can use the last four in the first grouping of lights).

Posted from another thread.
I just got my lights from the ebay guy yesterday. I was starting to worry a little bit but there the package was in the mailbox.
It took me about an hour to get 8 bulbs in. FWIW, the screwdriver I was using to remove the covers to maps light was too small. That plastic is very soft and I did leave a very slight indentation in the edge of the plastic. Yes I was using a towel like it's illustrated in the manaul. Again that plastic is very very soft even malleable to some extent.
Once I switched out to a wider and larger screwdriver I was able to pop the covers out relatively easily. I was thinking that smaller was better but not in this case.
Just be careful not to mar up the trim edge of the map lights.
Oh yeah, the LEDs look great. Very different glow to them and I think it complements the HIDs immensely.

Still would like some guidance on getting to the Tag bulbs.

for the Sedan all the interior bulbs and the license plate are all wedge bulbs 194/168 type.
I have replaced the bulbs in 4 G35 Sedans - all of us at work really like the glow of the LED as opposed to the incandescent yellow.
Here is what I did to replace all of them for LED in my G - (the others went all white - I like the blue in the door)
2 x WLED 6-LED bulb for Door (Blue)
2 x WLED 4-LED bulb for License Plate (White)
3 x WLED 4-LED bulb for Rear Reading Lights (White)
2 x WLED 5-LED Wide Angle LED bulb for Map Lights and Trunk (White)
The reverse Lights I haven't done yet but if you look in your owner's manual it has the bulb type there
