Default LED's, LED's & more LED's - HELP

Looked for hours here on thread after thread after thread (and only got more confused) for the right LED to replace the following in my 2011 Supercrew.......

Anyone here know which superbrightled's to get for the following....
Map
Done
License plate

Thats it...... I've started a shopping cart 3 times now and cancelled them all cuz I'm not sure what to get... I want white I know that, and I want bright.

Thanks for any help to set me straight!

Sylvania has a bulb finder on their website that will ask you to put in the info for your truck and will give you all of the bulb sizes for your truck.

As for load resistors. The only things you will need load resistors for are turn signals. So front turn signals and rear turn signals/brake lights.

9140 for the fogs.

Here is another guide that referenced Sylvania if you have any other questions.

This is what I mean, I know they have a guide for specific vehicles but for instance, the fog 9140, it says not available. And the others? They have multiple choices for same bulbs.

Its confusing to me. I guess I just have to order a bunch and hope they are right unless someone can post proper bulb numbers?

I guess I was hoping for part numbers.
Thanks for the input guys!

Dome- festoon 41 mm

Map- can be a 194 or T-10 or 168.

Licence- must be a SHORT 194/T10. Long ones will not push in far enough to lock the twist grommet.

Fogs- filaments are 9137/9145. 45 watts is the maximum wattage in that housing to prevent the lens and reflector from melting. Going to LED, look for 91xx. 50 Watt LED ones will not melt the housing as there is much less heat.

Hyperflash- to prevent that, install a 2.7/2.9 Ohm, 55 watt resistor ACROSS thesignal line and ground. This will trick the BCM that there is not a blown bulb as the resistor will draw enough current to mimic a filament bulb.

P.S. puddle lights are 31 or 30 mm festoons.
