I have had this discusion on several of the F/TF forums - map lights fitted with LED's in the F/TF do not normally stay on.

I'd remove the LED's and see if that cures the alarm problem.

Remeber they are not staying on but are dimply lit...but if not then I would suggest a difference between f/tf's and zs's then as all three of my zs's have had this. On ZS's if you have no tf mirror and fit an led festoon into the standard interior light you get a small glow from it but if you fit a tf mirror with led's then the glow appears in them instead...would guess this is due to the fact the wiring is spliced into before the standard light.
Not just cars, I have led replacements for halogen bulbs in the house and they pick up residual power in the wiring and some of the individual leds glow slightly even when the switch is off.
