    Update
    Installed the $15 puddle lights.
    Are they the best and brightest, with OEM quality?....Nope
    Do they fit, work, and increase light output?
    YES
    Would I purchase again for $15?....Sure!
    As other reviews have stated the posts are slightly smaller, so I smushed the plugs a little and no problema!
    They dont fit as perfectly tight as OEM, but if you make sure you push the clip all the way up and into the mirror, they dont giggle or need additional mods (i think the other reviews stating looseness probably didnt engage the clips fully).

    Thanks for all the responses, I went with the VLEDS i live by the motto “buy once cry once” so here are the VLEDS I’m extremely happy with them. (Passenger is stock, drivers are VLEDS)

    To the OP, yes. I bought mine on eBay for $13 and they rock. I installed them on my tow mirrors.

    Pretty sure you can. If you click on the VLED link it says:
    Compatibility:

    • 07-13 Tundra Limited & Platinum
    • 14-19 Tundra Limited, Platinum & 1794 Edition
    • 07-19 Sequoia Limited & Platinum

    I was more concerned if the Limited had the wiring plugs in the harness already. Really not wanting to cut up new wiring.

    I always thought that Limiteds were factory fit with puddle lights. I'm wondering if Toyota found another place to cut out farkles like they did with the driver-side grab handle....:facepalm:

    I got the Drive Bright puddle lights, and one of them is out already. For that money it shouldn't happen this quick. I've only had them about 7 or 8 months.

    Do the VLEDs fit flush? The thing I loved about the Drive Brights is the looked stock but shine bright. Thinking about switching but I'd really like them to be flush

    You can add anything. But you’ll need to run the wiring into the cab and tap into your dome lights.

    To anyone thinking about doing them, do it - you’ll wonder how you ever walked up to a dark door before.

    Can anyone confirm if the Limited has the needed wiring in the mirrors?
