I know this has probably been covered but wish to change the original ones to White LED's. I see how they are removed, but unsure of what you can replace the OEM ones with, or if you even can with White LED's. Is there any OEM ones off another model Toyota or Lexus that fit or JDM? ANY help and photos greatly appreciated!
Pete, I am reasonably sure you can change out the bulb in the glovebox with a Lexus part number (81080-22040), which contains a white LED. If your car currently has the footwell lights, this same part number can be used for those as well. Otherwise, you will have to either make a footwell light harness to simulate the one from a higher-grade Prius or wire them in using a power source you choose.
you can replace the footwell lighting with LEDs like this: Blue 12 SMD 5050 LED Car Interior Light Lamp T10 Dome BA9S Festoon Adapter 12V | eBay Not too sure about the ones in the glove box, i'll take a look later today. But i'm pretty sure you can find a cheaper alternative on ebay rather than going with the Lexus part.
I just ordered 2 more of the blue lights from above. I want to install them under the front seats. Really easy to just remove what is there stock and plug these in, they stick to the underside of the dash and look really sharp.
All you need to do is figure out your bulbs type number, it's in the Owners Manual, and go to a LED Supplier like this one, www.autolumination.com Tail Light Brake Light Turn Signal LED Bulbs Cross reference your bulb type with the appropriate LED replacement. There are no incandescent bulbs inside, nor outside on my car!
jjPrius is correct.......81080-22040 is the Lexus part number for the white LEDs. I bought them from here: Auto Parts - Parts.com, For Every Part of Your Life These are what I got:
Thanks for sharing that. If I would have known about 3 years ago, I could have saved myself a whole lot of bucks! The bulb itself looks like the attached photo, but upon closer inspection of the plug, it is just a 2 pin connector. I went with the Lexus bulbs, but the white light looks so much better. If they ever burn out, I know what to get as replacements!
Thanks gents, I'll contact my local Lexus dealer and see if they can come up with the goods. I have searched online and nothing comes up for that part here in the UK, so will have to wait and see tomorrow.
That would be amazing thanks!!! I can just PayPal you the money. I'll let you know if I'm buggered (stuck). Thanks again,
All good ordered the parts from my dealer, will be with me Saturday! Thanks for yr help will post a reply when fitted.
