Yes interior front light are bax9's but have to be rewired to work.
The rear map reading lights are festoon also and to remove just stick a small flat head into one of the sides with the hole and pull out.
The boot light is also festoon but abit bigger than the door and rear map lights which are the same size.

The map lights are BA9S, not BAX9S. The X has offset pins, they will not fit unless you grind off one of the pins. As has been said though, the wiring needs to be swapped around (red to where green is and green to where red is) and extended as the green wire will not reach to where the red is. I can rustle up some pics if you want?

Here's a pic of the map light assembly. As you can see I've extended the green wiring (with light green wiring cause I was trying to be neat) and swapped the green with the red/brown wires

Also found this info in a Word document on my comp too


Dome lights – 2x BA9 BA9s Base Bulb with 9 High Power SMD LEDs Specifications
Number plate – 2x T10 LED Lights, Bulbs & Accessories - SUPER BRIGHT LEDS
Footwell lights – 2x T10
Front park lights – 2x T10
Rear roof lights – Festoon 37mm 3710-xHPx High Power LED Festoon Bulb Specifications
Rear door lights – Festoon 37mm
Front door lights – Festoon 37mm
Glovebox light – Festoon 37mm
Console light – Festoon 37mm

Pretty sure the boot light is a 41mm festoon, however I'm not sure as I wired in a led light block (below)
