Glove box lights... did they change?
So Super Bright LED's has the wrong light listed for our glove boxes. I'd like to try and work to get them to correct it, but I'm wondering if maybe the early cars used a different light? They list the same 44mm light that we have in our dome light and hatch light. My 86 and 87 have a 30mm light in the glove box. Can anyone with an early car verify what you've got?
BTW, if ordering from them currently, the glove box light is a 3022, not a 6411 like they list.

I have a 86 turbo, went to Walmart and used their light locator electronic advisor. Gave me the wrong light, too big.
I found a smaller LED from Osram, 28mm or something that works very well, only problem is that when inserting the lamphousing in the glove compartment, the connectors touch and I blow a fuse, so I always have to remove fuse, remove the transparent plastic housing with the bulb in it and do whatever business I have to do, and then reverse the process ending with putting the fuse back.
So right it is not the same bulb as in the dome lights etc
So just bought the same bulb for my 928 glove box, Sylvania LED DE3175 and it says "also compatible with DE3021 and DE3022" The LED is polarity sensitive
