Thank you so much for making this video. I wouldn’t even begin to know how to approach this problem, you made it a snap! Anyone reading this comment should note, you will notice that the plastic around the gearshift bulb holder may be brittle from age & heat. Be very careful using any tool that could damage the bulb holder. You might consider leaving the bulb holder in place and carefully use needle nose pliers to remove old bulb and place new led bulb.

As an (older) woman who knows NOTHING about a car except driving & putting gas in it 🤭 When my X husband left me for my BF, he neglected to show me basic maintenance on my 4-Runner. Oops! So, I took on the task of researching (and reading my car's manual) how to replace factory-grade bulbs with LEDs. I cannot express how thankful I am for coming across this video!!!!! It was informative & easy. ••• Let me add...Last week I detailed the areas in which (I now have apart) I used Q-Tips & Toothpicks to reach the crevices! OMG! Every piece is disgusting from drinks & debris falling into the crevices. And to think I had a clean interior...😂 Thank you, mate.

Thanks for the video and breakdown of everything, good stuff. I’d love to see a follow up on how they look in action. I’m tempted to do this myself, but I’m curious if they’re overpowering and how they look compared to the rest of the lights in the dash like HVAC and info panel.

The superbright #74 fit fine in cup holder. But would not fit tight in the gear shift. Think the oem is a little longer.

Hello and thanks for the video. You know, I replace the bulbs and when I try them none of them light up. Do you know what else can go wrong?

Try spinning the bulb 180° around. The LED bulbs are polarized +-
