Replacing the interior lights with LED types will certainly give the vehicle a more modern and appealing look, as well as significantly improve the interior lighting itself; consider that all automotive manufacturers are now adopting this solution without offering it as an option.

In any case, start with the front dome light by completely removing it to access the bulb holders behind; move on to the center light, again completely removing it to separate the cover lens and attach the bulb; complete the installation with the courtesy lights under the doors, the one in the trunk (which needs to be opened to access the bulb holder), and you can also consider applying an LED strip connected to the same bulb holder; finally, remove the cover from under the rear hood to replace the reverse lights.
