Is Mult-Infomation Display Backlit?
I just purchased a used 2007 4Runner SR5 4x4 to replace my 1998 4Runner SR5 4x4 and I love it but I have an issue with the multi-information display. It doesn't light up with the rest of the dash at night. I feel stupid asking this, but do 2007s have a backlight on this display?

Yes, need to replace the bulbs. Not hard to do, mine was out when I got it as well.

Yep, just replace the bulbs. Pull the little cubby out under the display. Remove the one screw and pull the display out. The bulb are remove with a small screwdriver.

Can anyone confirm best place to get these bulbs? AutoZone? or do we need to go OEM?

Got mine from the dealership and they're only a couple bucks... $5 tops.
You might want to try Radio Shack though. Good Luck.
