Just wanted to put this out there in case anyone was wondering what options were available. I upgraded all of my interior lighting with LED lights using the following kit from Amazon:

I think the results speak for themselves. Here is row 1 and 2:

This is with both rows and the cargo area together:

Finally, here's a pic of one of the doors (note the color difference with the lighted running board LEDs):

Finally, I upgraded the reverse lamps as well. I unfortunately wasn't able to get a pic of those, but the ones I went with were a night and day difference in brightness (double the brightness if I had to quantify). If anyone is looking for replacement reverse lamps I highly recommend these:

Amazon claims that these bulbs will not fit the 2019 Passport, nor the 2019 Pilot. How did you determine that they would fit in the Passport? I see from the pictures that they obviously do.

I’ve purchased and installed the backup bulbs and they’re great! How did you remove the lenses on the interior lights? It looks like the only way is to pry very very carefully with a small screwdriver but there is no obvious place to do that. I fear I’ll break it!

There are multiple videos on performing the same process in a Pilot. It will require some force, but not enough to break the lens. In the end, these lens covers are plastic: if you break one they won't cost more than a couple bucks to replace. Take your time and be deliberate when you're removing the lens, it's not that hard.

It’s the couple of bucks that worries me. The carpet lock that holds the driver’s carpet in place on my wife’s HR-V broke after a year or so of light use and it cost $22 and charge to replace it. It could easily have been mistaken for a toy in a kid’s Happy Meal at Micky D’s.

I had seen the videos but still wanted verification from someone who had recently done it. Even my local mechanic was uncertain. Thanks again.

Thank you to btric74, Shaddow and DaveG. I will give it a shot and let you all know the result.

My son and I replaced the door and ceiling lights today using the kit mentioned by Passport52 and they look great and dim perfectly! It was a great father and son thing to do after Easter dinner. He is all enthused and off researching doing same for his Durango. It was his first time seeing my Elite and he was very impressed. We looked at one of the videos mentioned on this thread to help with the cargo light. We pulled all the covers using a small screwdriver that I keep in the glovebox.
