Led signal

Thanks Rider1 I will be sure to send you a biscuit for your help JEEZ:wow:
Thank you for the help
 
@Rider1. Perhaps a little less caffeine? As the newly self-appointed Punctuation Police, you're gonna be a busy boy.

@OP - I put LEDs in the puddle lamps, for which I had to pop the mirrors out, but don't recall having access to the turn indicators. I also do not recall anyone posting about doing what you asked. Do you know how to get to that bulb?
 
LED daytime running lights

I dont know how to get to that bulb but I will take the mirror out again and take a look and see if I could access it that way will keep you guys posted.
Thanks Guys!!!
 
Why do you need to change the turn signal lights in the mirrors to LED when they are already LEDs? Maybe I missed something but these and the third brake light are the only LEDs in the stock 4R Limited and SR5.
 
side mirror LED

Ok I am glad we got to the bottom of that so they are LED's I guess I will move on to my next project.
Thanks you save me the time and effort of taking the side mirror apart.

How difficult was it to replace the bulbs with LEDs? I have been searching for bulbs and instructions online and it looks like it's extremely difficult to do. I've seen people mention wiring/soldering, etc. I'd like to change my map lights, middle dome, and rear hatch lights to LED and I have no idea where to start or how easy/difficult it would be. Any suggestions/advice you can give would be great.
 
They're all pretty easy, and they all come apart by popping off the lens - some easier than others.

There are instructions somewhere for popping the side mirrors, but I'm not sure where. Seems daunting, but not so hard really.

The dome and map lights were the best change, esp. the maps, I love how they flood the front seat with white light. I can't find my pics, but they both pry open with care. Just take your time.

Someone will post up the LED part #s, sorry, I didn't save them.

Thanks for sharing. I'm not as concerned about removing the lamps as I am with replacing the actual incandescent bulb with an LED. That's the part I'm worried about. Are they just plug and play?
