Thanks!

Don't bother changing the map lights or the single dome light. They will constantly give you errors and refuse to work if you use the standard 5 smd LED's. The footwells and the door lamps are NOT monitored for current flow so they will not throw errors.
The doors on my wife's car had very short wire leads too. I just popped them out and twisted 90 degrees to remove the bulb holder from the housing.
