I've replaced all my interior lights with LEDs except the footwell and I cant find any info on what LED bulb to buy to replace them. Does anyone know where to get the LED bulbs?

I'm pretty certain that a 2017 would already have LED footwell lights and if so, the OEM ones do not use a bulb. They are small units with a single LED soldered inside. If you are determined to use your own bulbs then you can replace them with the sockets from a Jeep Grand Cherokee which use, iirc, a 194 style bulb. They will plug right into the same connector as the factor ones. There's a whole thread on the subject here in the DIY section.

Odd, I thought all the newer trucks had this style:

Sounds like you have the old style like this:

I have the top ones on my truck and they SUCK to lighting up anything...
So I bought a pair of the bottom ones with a pair of LED 194 bulbs... and the harness will plug right into them and WOW what a difference... I would never go back.

You'll have to put them on a toggle.

I did the old school with 194's and upgraded using Lasfit canbus and they're bright as hell! Love it, easiest $25 I've spent. Now to do opt7 ambient lighting under dash, front and rear seats along with those cup holder light rings...............

I bought the lights at a junk yard from a 98 grand Cherokee for $1.50 for the pair. Then bought LEDs off of eBay from china for $2. Best 3.50 I ever spent, lol.

Like someone else did, I took the white cap off. Makes it much brighter
