I have only even seen #194 lights behind the dash.

I don't know about those LED dome lights, they don't have a heat sink. My G4 dome light mod is heat sinked with RTV and aluminum.
Also the G4 array is at least assembled in the USA.
Plus my dome light mounts were rusty and had burned wires, so drop in LED replacements were never really an option.

Autozone and O'rielly's has red and amber 194 LED replacements with 4 bendable/aimable 4mm LEDs. They are a bit expensive but are very bright and since they are colored all the light generated is useable for blinkers and running lights.
The colored pre-made 194 replacements are good for me because I work so much these days I don't have time to fabricate all my mods from scratch or raw componets. (I have more money than time)
Truck stops tend to have white 194 replacement LEDs.
