LED kits for 5th generation 4runner(Help needed)

Before I installed the puddle lights, i noticed the puddle lights were not on.... when should they turn on? I tried turning the car on, accessory mode, open the door, close the door.... What gives?

On another note these things look great in the day time, so i cannot wait to see them tonight!
 
try locking your car, waiting a min then walking up to it. Or lock it.
They also turn on if you're not within smart key range and unlock the doors with the remote.

Pictures please?
 
I will post pictures tonight.... got into a little tiff with the ole lady about ordering my lift, she wants me to wait 6 months, and of course i dont : ).... but I will get them posted tonight, the rear back up LED's not as good as the ones So_Led was selling, the next step up was the $35 ones, so i'll wait a bit then order those.

Oh and waiting a couple mins and walking up to the runner did the trick with the puddle lights, and on the boards, I sodered the wires to the adapter so i didnt have to worry about pulling the wires from them on installation.

Yep. You'll need twelve 194/168 LEDs (for a Limited, of course). This involves two for the map lights, two for the vanity mirror lights, two for the side mirror puddle lights, four for the door courtesy lights, and two for the license plate lights.

For the rear hatch you'll need two 3175 base/adapter LED boards.

For the dome light you'll need one 3175 base/adatpter LED board

FYI: I personally thought the dome light was way too bright and ended up "downgrading" to this bulb (matches the map lights perfectly). However, if you'd still like a really bright light, I'd recommend this bulb instead over the LED board.

Jaker, it says it comes in pairs, so you need six 194/168?
 
So LED,
I tried to PM You but your inbox is full. I'm starting to have problems with one of my license plate LEDs. It's dim and sometimes not on at all. I'm not sure if the led is starting to die on me or if it's something else. All my other ones work perfectly. Let me know what you think.

You don't. He quit selling them. Go back a few pages and order them all yourself from the links. They work the same/better than the packages the guy was putting together.
