dome lights
hello, I have a question on dome lights, might lights are out, which type and where can I order? Is it a dealer option?

The W5W bulb for the dome light is much smaller than the 921 bulb. I never found a W5W at an auto parts store, but my Ford dealer had them.

OK, I've been reading where and looks like I the best ones are the white LED. Recon has some but they are 25, ebay has a lot for like 5 bucks, is there a difference?

The Owner's Guide for the 2007 says W5W for the overhead console/map lamp. Unless that changed from 2005 to 2007, yes the standard bulb is the W5W.

I'm not promoting Recon lights, i have seen others cheaper on ebay, looks like LED is the way to go.

Do the LED's fade? In my 2011 the dome light fades out when they turn off. I think they did that in my '06 as well.

No. You have an anuerism. See a doctor.
Yes, they do "fade". They'll even dim, too.
