You want to get 36mm or 37mm Festoon bulbs. Don't get the kind where the bulb widens in the middle to fit more LEDs.

I ordered some 36mm ones yesterday. They were 6 SMDs, so they're slightly wider but I think they should fit just fine. If not, I know I saw some 3 SMD types too.

I have some that only have 2 SMD LEDs each. However, they are very bright because the bulbs were designed for interior usage, not license plate lighting. It lights up the ground around the rear bumper.

Oil change and transmission flush and refill at 33.6k miles. Still need to do spark plugs, will get to them in time. Maybe at 35k, may do coolant then as well.

Ordered an air filter for my 30k service (1k overdue). The exciting life of reliable car ownership.

Why are you changing the spark plugs and coolant at 35K? Both are on long-life service intervals.
The spark plugs are iridium and don't have a replacement interval until at least 75,000 miles.
The coolant is also the "super long-life blue coolant" and doesn't need an initial replacement until 75,000 miles as well.
