Yes. Quite a few discussions and write ups regarding that with part #'s for every slot and which ones you should not bother with depending on what ya want and year specific info, you'll have to dig through the conversations but the info is all there, it's wise to read the entire thread(s) to the end incase others find variances and unwanted light bleed through between diff years they bring up.

This thread should have what you need: WRITE UP: climate control and dash bulbs 2000 limited.
I did the LED swap and am very happy. I never liked the green lights that Toyota chose stock. Pure white looks really good on the gauge cluster and then another accent color for the climate control and switches. Just be prepared to improvise as not all the bulbs are a simple plug and play. Some LED replacements are too big so you'll have to cut the housings, shorten wires, solder, etc.

This is the kit many have recommended:
4Runner - Interior kit (3rd Gen.) - PFran LEDs

Where did you end up buying your LEDs from? I heard the quality from the recommended sites, like superbrightleds.com, are crappy.

After my Amazon LED dome lights burned I just got LEDs from autozone.

If you go led, don't get really ultra bright super harsh white ones. Get like 3000-4000k want ones. Much easier on the eyes at night. I would not put white ones everywhere as it will be harsh at night.
I changed one of my two map lights to a red led to use at night, you can see just fine but it doesn't blind you as a driver!

Oh they are Not crappy, just pricey, some might say Expensive. I installed blue ones in cluster, I like the look, easy on the eyes. That was years ago, they never have burned out.
A handful of bulbs for the dash cluster will be in the $30 range plus shipping.
They are not difficult or time consuming to install, so go with cheapies and replace if necessary. Luck.

Mine are from superbrightleds.com lol. Just buy at least one extra of each kind in case you are unlucky enough to get a dud. All LED's are made in China whether you pay $10.00 each or $0.10 each.

I have something very similar in my dome lights too. I got kids and was tired of not being able to see anything inside the vehicle at night! Plus helps with diaper changes in the cargo area.
