Default LED Hatchback Bulb

I noticed that even with the Prestige and Innovation packages, Audi still decided to fit the hatch compartment with a regular, incandescent bulb. Has anyone changed these to LEDs and if so, did you find a bright equivalent? Does anyone know the size number that is in there now and do you just pry off one side to remove the lens cover?

Thanks.

Easy, just pry off the lens with a flat head screwdriver, like the on in the audi kit, they pop right out, then detach the wire adn remove the existing bulb, then pop in the new one. The Current flowing is uni-directional so you may have to turn the led around for it to work.

Its easy, you can get the right bulbs from tunnerdome, just goggle it. Contact tunnerdome, he will get the right bulbs.
