Replacing Stock Bulbs with LEDs in OEM Switches

Decided to swap out the bulbs in my OEM Switches today with Blue LED versions to match my Flyzeye and Garage Door Switch.



Here's a link to the LEDs I used:

NEOx LED Bulb - High Power Instrument Panel LED

3MM (T-1) Bulb

And here's a video showing the process for changing them:

Something I omitted from the video, when you pop the switch out of the dash, the bulb is accessible right away, you don’t have to open the switch further. What you see in the video is how it was when I removed it.

 

Are you AC controls still orange?

 

The ac push button is, not considering changing it.

 

Haha, are those the Jessica Alba knobs on Amazon???

 

Probably, can’t remember the name of them.

 

I always just laughed at the name. I have them too. How did you get the rest of it white? Are you the guy that posted the intense post about it? (By intense, I mean, too much work for me)

 

I think the 12-14 version is white already, I did nothing but remove the old and plug the new ones in.

 

The recirc and AC buttons aren’t hard to change. Pull the hvac panel apart and desolder/resolder em. Did this in my truck with red when I did all the other lighting. Definitely worth the time.

 

Are those LEDs shining down on your ac knobs?

Looks good. Definitely gonna consider this for the future.

 

Those are pretty cool actually. I might have to get one as my climate control lights don't work, Even with new $12 bulbs from Toyota

 

Mine are out too I replaced bulbs and still doesnt work

 

My dimmer wheel doesn't work either. I feel like when the previous owner shorted that out, he must have shorted out the lights on climate control board. The AC and cabin air lights still work oddly enough.

I've thought about getting some LEDs and resistors and wiring them into the power lines to the climate control board

 

subed.

 

Very well executed, looks good.

 

you can do the lights by the shifter as well that lights up the gear selections. Here is the led needed. you cannot use a single led, as it only lights up directly above it, so only the "d" or "n" will be lit. This special led has 6 bulbs on it, and casts light in all directions, and lights up the whole row of gear selections. https://www.vleds.com/74-6-c.html
