Replace vanity mirror bulbs with LED???
Are there LED replacement bulbs for the lights along side the vanity mirrors on the visors?
If so, do you know who sells them?
Also need directions to replace them.
Thanks

Its a 2721 bulb, which is a 1.2 watt "72" base style bulb.
Basically, any 72 style bulb will fit there. 72 bulbs are common in cars for indicator lights and such. If you google "72 LED Bulb" you'll see some examples...
I am pretty sure the bulb faces "sideways" in the housing. I.e. it plugs in the top or bottom of the housing and the side of the bulb faces you when its illuminated, so a replacement LED bulb would also have to have the LEDs on the side of the bulb as opposed to being on top of it.

C6 vanity light bulb removal
I found that by popping out the bottom frame you can slide the mirror down and expose the wiring and bulb
fixture, which then can easily be accessed!
