Hello everyone!
I received some of the
AUXITO 194 LED Interior Bulbs to review for my 2022 TRD ORP. These were provided to me for free to do a review.
(
194 LED Bulb White Extremely Bright T10 168 2825 175 W5W Wedge 14-SMD — AUXITO)
My thought was to take before and after pictures to show the lighting output and to get an idea of the color differences between the factory bulbs and the AUXITO 194 LED bulb. The 194 bulbs fit into the: (2) Map Lights, (4) Door Lights, and (2) License Plate Lights - Total of (8) 194 bulbs.
The bulb replacement was very straightforward it only took me about 20 minutes to perform the install. I decided to showcase this review in my garage to simulate what it would look like during the night time. I will label each photo so there is a comparison of the before/after, and then show side by sides with a factory bulb and the AUXITO 194 LED bulb in the same photo.
Overall, I am very pleased by the AUXITO bulbs and the performance that these lights provide. I am kind of a lighting snob; I enjoy the color and output of LED bulbs and the cool temperatures when being used. Typically, when I get a new vehicle, I search for interior and exterior LED upgrades. I noticed when I was uninstalling my factory bulbs, they were very hot to the touch. The AUXITO bulbs are very cool to the touch and hardly put off any heat. An additional thing I noticed; some LEDs can be too bright in certain situations when you're driving at night. Your vision can be washed out if your passenger turns on the map light while driving. I didn't find this to bother me at all during night driving, the brightness felt about right. I liked the added light I received from the door, the factory door bulbs are basically useless and doesn't put off any usable light. The AUXITO license plate bulbs put off a cleaner, white color, the factory bulbs are a dull yellow shade. I also noticed that the iPhone didn't do justice to how yellow the factory bulbs are in certain photos. I really struggle with those factory amber colored bulbs with hardly any light output. All in all, AUXITO makes a very quality bulb with an excellent balance of color choice.
NOTE: Pictures were taken with an iPhone 13 Pro
