    I don't want to go through the hassle. Right after I posted earlier I went onto Amazon looking for stock bulbs and came across an equivalent LED replacement kit for $20. They're cheap, I didn't have to go look up bulb part numbers, my expectations are set way way low. But should be better than no light, right? If I get a year out of them I'll be happy.

    Got my precision led kit in. Pretty nice so far. Love the reverse lights. The interior bulbs however are borderline "too bright" though. Not sure how I feel about it really. Would prefer a not even brightness but white light instead of yellow

    Yeah I thought the interior lights were pretty bright at first but you will get use to them. I think they are the right brightness now.

    Like Cruzer, I bought the firefly 20.00 kit off Amazon. Only had them a few weeks but they all work with some leftovers for some door and glovebox lights that don't exist and I already had Sylvanias in the cargo and reverse lights.

    I agree, the interior are super bright. Forget about using the vanity mirror lights unless it's daylight outside. I thought I would get used to them, but haven't. May change them out one day. Not sure if its the 5500k that makes them so bright or what..

    I partly agree with this. In March of 2019 purchased all the Precision PREMIUM bulbs which are suppose to last longer and be brighter, (Map, Dome, Footwell, License plate, overhead bed, vanity, and Reverse). Within the first year, one of the license plate lights started blinking the whole time the truck was on. Contacted Precision and although it wasnt the greatest customer service eventually they sent me out new bulbs for free, but didnt tell me that they'd be different blue color bulbs as they discontinued the more blue-ish color I originally purchased. They told me it was due to them severing ties with one of their suppliers. Don’t get me wrong the new bulbs are still blue enough, just not as blue as the ones I purchased in March of 2019. Currently the only bulbs working are the footwell, truck bed, vanity, and reverse. The map, dome, and license plates are all dead and some were within first year of covered warranty but because customer service was sort of a hassle to reach and get this replacement processed, I just dealt with the bulbs being out. Its annoyed me enough now to look to replace them. I would definitely purchased the bulbs which are still functioning again (footwell, truck bed, vanity, and reverse). I would just get the less brighter bulbs for the interior because when you turn those on at night they are extremely bright. definitely blinding. Maybe just the dome lights I'd get as the bright ones. Then again this could've just been the blue-ish color bulbs I bought from them were defective. They did tell me they discontinued them or cut ties with a specific supplier. Something like that.

    I ended up replacing the bulbs that went bad with Precision again. If I really give it some thought, most of the bulbs are still working at the 2 year mark. I’ll pay for that convenience. Definitely make sure to think twice about the vanity lights. WAYY TOO BRIGHT. If you already purchased them, I solution is to rotate the bulb 90 degrees so the LED isn’t facing directly at your face. Huge difference
