To swap sl projector assemblies onto an sv. Is it a simple swap? Would they just bolt up?
They should fit in the same hole mechanically, if that's what you mean. Like I said, the wiring is a whole 'nother story.

So, I went through the INL FSM, the owner's manual, and surfed the web.

Owner's Manual - "Map light* * It is recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for replacement"

On-Line - 26447-AL500, 26410JA for Korean production, DE3175 bulb. So it's a "Festoon" style with pointed endcaps.

Is there a definative identification of this bulb? It's either an 8W or 10W [not a huge difference], the 3157 is a common bulb style.

:crazy:

The Nissan bulbs generally have flat protrusions at the tips of the contacts because they use slotted contact fingers in the lamp assembly. Aftermarket bulbs are okay but you may need to bend the fingers slightly for some extra spring tension. Don't exceed 10W, the wiring will handle it but not the switch contacts.

I got my Rogue down from Madison yesterday, and I think one of the Map Lights was buzzing. That suggests it's gonna take a dump... Sound went away when I turned off the lights. Read the owner's manual, and I will eventually turn the dome lights off entirely. On my '14, you just hit a switch to turn the roof lights off, now you go through the menu. Rather have a switch...

It was cold outside [maybe 20 F] with a wind, so I didn't spend time pulling the assembly to see what the bulb was...

Like what tsumeone said, the maps is a lot different and already LEDs in the '14 Rogue. It just looks warmer. I've already tried to disassemble the map light to see if I could replace it but the LEDs are actually permanently mounted on a circuit board. If you know how to solder you could possibly change it.
