		I've got some normal filament ones in mine that are over 2x brighter than stock, and slightly whiter - but not the usual LED bright white/blue colour. 
 I use 'em in the boot light and interior lights too so you can actually bloody see something when rummaging around in the boot at night.

there you go, but be warned, it did take a while for these to arrive - recommend opting for recorded delivery IF possible.
 
they fit on my phase 1, dont know what lights phase 2 and 3's have, maybe the same?
