    Removed all of the interior stock light bulbs ( including the small one on the floor near the emergency break ) and replaced all of them with white LED lights from comfort wheels. Easy cheap mod that only took about 20 minutes. Also replaced the cargo lights in the bed with the same LED's. Lights only cost about 11 dollars.

    The lights were only 11 dollars and some change. Very cheap.

    I just did the same last weekend. Paid way too much for the bulbs. The front pax side is only working intermittently. It plugged very loosely, so I wiggled around...blew the fuse. Changed the fuse and tried to tighten up the fit by bending the contacts. No joy. I'll have to dig into it this weekend.

    Travis, what bulb number did you order for the lower courtesy/step light? I couldn't find one.

    Good call! Did the same thing a few months ago...love it! The white light is much better than the dingy orange.
    Here are some that I used...easy to install.

    LEDs in overhead bed light are great. No need for any other bed lights with them. Bright enough for me to skin and quarter a deer with them.

    Will these work for a 2019 as well? I counted 6 in the above pics but didn’t see the light by the ebrake pedal so 7 total?

    Yes they should be fine. I had some 194's I got of ebay some time ago and swapped into my 19. you will need a total of 6. They one by ebrake is a different bulb. These are what I had on my 2016 tundra for 3 years with no issues.

    I replaced mine with bulbs that have this style connector. It seems a lot more secure than the wire ones on Toyota's sockets. The wire ones would flicker and blow fuses. I've had them in for 3 months with no issues in any of them.

    Is there a “reliable” 194 LED bulb available, then? Many reviews for the Auxito on Amazon echo the problems in this thread as well as poor longevity.
