Is there a way to take the light in the centre console out, and replace it with LED? Like the one right underneath the HVAC controls, infront of the Shifter?
And for the dome light, is their a way to use a 194 in it? I just wrapped some solder around each terminal before, just to see if it worked. But is there a way to make it atleast secure? I got a few kicking around, and want a little project. Can't do anything major, as I got no room to park it in the driveway.

Don't know about the dome light, but the cubby hole light, yes you can take it out and put an LED wedge lite in there. I think it's a size "68"

Would I have to take the bezel out?

yes. and its not hard to do. remove shifter, remove shift bezel, remove radio/cubby bezel. remove light. (twists in and out)
the shifter has a staple in the front of it, and the other two just snap in/out of place.

Any confirmation on the size of the light? Tried to google it, but no luck.

I'll probably just end up doing that.

if you go to an auto parts store and look up in the book or little computer they have it should tell you.
I know it's the only blub in the Alero with a 2 digit number
