I buy my bulbs from amazon in packs of 6-10. 194 led and 31mm festoon led bulbs. Fit on my other car too. Don't buy from ebay.

Naw, I'll pull them out and check. It's just my over head lights. First the back one, then the middle one.

Just bought these from amazon. About $1.20 a bulb.
These were about $1.50 a bulb from amazon.
Don't buy kits... find out what type of bulb you need and buy those.

My bad... I see the ebay link for the $15 set now.
My comment was towards the initial $61 set the OP was talking about.
I've been seeing lots of led sets for other vehicles including my WRX and the markup is significant. Figured I'd share what I've seen since the lights are basically the same on both of my vehicles and with amazon you'll get them in a day or two with prime and free shipping.
I still have a hard time trusting ebay seller quality fwiw and would still stay away from those bulbs but that's just my personal opinion. 39 negative feedback in the last month is enough for me to avoid.

So...now I'm a little bummed and disappointed with these LED's. Price was great, but quality has been iffy. 2 dome lights flickered (replaced with extras and have worked fine so far) and now my license plate lights (different bulb and no extras) are flickering. I've tried to contact seller 3 times with no response.
Color is good, quality is suspect, and customer service is bad. Has anyone else experienced these issues? Thoughts?

Mine are doing the same exact thing, dude. Same bulbs, too.
This is what I have:
Classy Autos Toyota 4Runner White Interior LED Package (10 Pieces) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005DOQYNU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_-zVJxbS3YX58J
I ended up with extra LEDs and if there isn't a tool included in your package like mine, you can always just use a small flathead screwdriver.

pfran led lights, have specific sets for the 4th gen. VERY VERY bright too. i love mine!
Bought and installed. Had trouble w two lights but I bent the wire at the bottom so it catches both sides on the metal socket. Works fine. Looks good.
I had two dome light leds left over. But did the 4 doors. 2 dome lights. 2 courtesy lights.
Am I missing any?

A little more expensive, but you really can't go wrong with the Philips LED replacement bulbs...

Results were excellent and one of the most practical and simple modifications one could make to their whole vehicle. Recommend installing these lights in every vehicle you own. Plus Amazon Prime and that free 2 day ship.
I'd like to add that I haven't been using my 4Runner much since but I have the same bulbs in my WRX which I daily drive and do not notice any flickering or degradation.
Pay attention to the polarity. If a bulb doesn't work out of the bag flip it around.
I also remember having to be careful with the prongs/leads on the car side. If the bulb is a loose fit you might have spread the leads too far out but a slight adjustment in the opposite direction to ensure a tight fit might be necessary. Just be careful not to break your leads.
