i think it is common knowledge to get the lights at www.superbrightleds.com or ask one of the many vendors on this forum - ben@p2spec or gregg@usp_motorsports will be glad to help you
what you need :
the 2 map lights ( front of the car), 2 foot well lights, 1 glove box light, 3 dome lights (back seat) = total of EIGHT 194 mini wedge http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=/specs/WLED-xHP5.htm

for the 2 visors (the flaps above your head that you pull down to block the sun from your eyes) you need - TWO 37 mm festoon bulbs
(i DIDN'T buy these so idk which link it is.... so if you feel free to post up a link :thumbsup:

for the trunk light you need - ONE 43 mm festoon bulb

HID FOG LIGHTS
upgrading your fogs to hid fogs - you could use this site http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/DDM-HID-Kit-Slim-Ballast-35W-or-55W
wattage - 35w
bulb type - H8
bulb color - your choice
Hid harness- Dual in, Dual out

there are also other sites and places you can get them, you just gotta shop around a little bit.

LED LICENSE PLATE
grab the rdash ones!

you can also get just the bulb which is about half the price. I'm not sure where to buy them now, but USP used to sell them.

for the one's that I didn't include, there is a entire bulb reference guide in this link : http://www.golfmk6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4689

here are some links and pictures if you're curious :

For halogen lights, the bulbs are as follows:

H7 bulbs are used for the low beam
H15 bulbs are used for the high beam/daytime running light (These are currently impossible to find aftermarket versions of, especially in the US.)
194 bulbs are used for the city lights
H8 bulbs are used for the fog lights.

i thought our fogs are H8, why do we need: adapter cables - h1/h7 to 9006 in the DDM kit?

i'm not sure about the adapter cables, some people didn't buy it, some did. It works either way i think. Not many people have the HID fog kit but for those who do.. feel free to chime in and let us know!
