How to Replace Courtesy Lights in your 200 Series Landcruiser

[@chrisgraham1179]

Enjoy all you 200 videos mate. Thank you

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks Chris, a real simple one this time but a bit of fun. Cheers😎👍

[@OverlandPNW]

Nice upgrade in illumination. Great mod!

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks mate, I’m glad you have taken the time to comment. Cheers😎😎

[@user-vc5qc5lc8u]

Thank you Terry, another great accessible upgrade. Those lights seems great the only thing i really don't like with those led is the color. This all white color make me feel at the dental clinic.

[@JafffaAdventures]

Cheers mate, they are still going strong with no issues. 👍😎

[@SeanArmstrong-w1k]

Absolutely the easiest upgrade ever!

[@JafffaAdventures]

Indeed it is mate👍😎

[@foss302]

Arggh you just made me spend more $ on my 200 Terry. 2010 60th Anniversary model with the red covers only. The plugs were there but no lights - Toyota - go figure. I had been looking for a while & then all of a sudden your video popped up. Saved me further research. Anyhow I used your link & got the same lights. They were a tight fit & I think would be a bitch to get out later if ever needed but so be it. Very bright but at least I can now see where I put my clumsy feet on the sidesteps at night. Wifey is happy with them so that's good !!! Cheers. Dave.

[@JafffaAdventures]

That is awesome Dave, there is nothing I like more than spending other peoples money, LOL! There are plenty of mod vids on the Jafffa Adventures channel so be sure to check those out so that I can spend more of your money! Seriously though, I am glad you found some value in what I put together. I do not monitise my channel, nor do I have or seek sponsorship so comments like yours are my sole motivation. Keep the shiny side up mate, and enjoy your 200. Cheers

[@gregwhittingham1909]

Enlightening video this week Terry! You have me thinking of what I have in my '19 Sahara but id imagine it'll be LED already. You almost need a dipper switch for those replacement units lol. Look forward to upcoming vids mate, keep 'em coming and 'Keep The Dirty Side Facing Down' :)

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks Greg, a short light hearted one this time around. It’s a good chance yours would be LED already but as you saw in the video, it’s a 5 second job to double check. Dirty sides still down mate😎👍

[@kevinbauer8482]

Great hack, only took a minute on each one. very bright

[@JafffaAdventures]

Good stuff Kevin, we’ll done mate👍😎

[@seacruise7383]

Thanks heaps...didn't want to crack my lense levering randomly on it to replace blown bulb

[@JafffaAdventures]

All good mate😎👍

[@seacruise7383]

I have just purchased a 2012 Sahara so will be watching a lot of your videos in the future😊 Thanks

[@JafffaAdventures]

@seacruise7383 good stuff mate. I think there are over 30 videos in my Landcruiser 200 Maintenance and modifications playlist with lots more to come in the future. Enjoy your stay mate. Cheers😎👍

[@VenidiciRobidici]

The new light panels are on their way to my door. Thanks mate

[@JafffaAdventures]

Good stuff mate, you won’t be disappointed, they kick butt! Cheers😎👍

[@danielb8901]

Wow Terry , the complete replacements are so bright. Don`t forget the Aerogard on the next trip. I enjoy your videos mate.

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks for your kind words Daniel, I really do appreciate it. I got bedazzled by the bright lights and I’m gonna pay for it in insect bites, I see that coming😂😎👍

[@MudducksTouringAustralia]

Good clip Terry, old GXL's dont haave the lights just red coverers. Wiring is in the door so those replacement works well straight away. Cheers Steve

[@JafffaAdventures]

Excellent to know mate, thank you!😎👍

[@scottmcneill1805]

I was about to ask that question regarding the gxl wiring. Is the plug right there or do I need to take the door card off to find it?

[@JafffaAdventures]

It’s a good question Scott. Hopefully one of the viewers can comment but the hole where the light goes is reasonably large so you could use a coat hanger or fencing wire to fish it out if it’s close-ish. It’s a 5 second job to get the lens off and have a look anyway. Cheers😎👍

[@MudducksTouringAustralia]

@@scottmcneill1805 Its right there mate, easy as. Well it was on mine. Cheers Steve

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks for sharing Steve 😎👍

[@DiHandley]

As someone famous once said “an incandescent light is an excellent heater that as a bonus throws some light out”. I’ll drink to that! 😉 So Terry it could be said that you “saw the light”.

[@JafffaAdventures]

I’ve never heard that saying before David but it’s spot on mate, I love it! Thanks for sharing mTe, nice one😎👍

[@pen1910]

great stuff magoo

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thank you sir, very kind😎👍

[@jebw]

Good comparison. Do you have the wattage of each LED Vs the original bulb? Maybe measure the current drawn by each to make a call on one of your parameters you mentioned.

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks for watching. No I don’t have the wattage for any of the bulbs. Cheers👍

[@tremorflow3614]

Am just wondering if there are foot well lights on some models? I have a 2011 VX which doesn't have them but I would like them factory if there is a model that has them?

[@JafffaAdventures]

I’m not certain mate, I have a VX like you and they do not have them. Cheers👍😎

[@fishernick2447]

Bring on the insects haha 👍

[@JafffaAdventures]

Bugs, bugs, bugs😉

[@rezuuz]

Hi Terry thanks for your video. Where can I buy those led lights do you have a link do they come left and right??😊🇳🇿

[@JafffaAdventures]

No worries. I got the lights off epray and the details are in the video at around time stamp 2:50, I suggest you watch that. They do not come in left and right, same light fits either side.

[@rezuuz]

@@JafffaAdventures Thanks I will watch again. Thank you. You the man 😊🇳🇿👍

[@JafffaAdventures]

Cheers👍😎

[@rayarmstrong5374]

Hi Terry Another great video Really informative Question My 2008 GXL has red reflective in the door panel Did the light only start in the later models? I am going to pull it apart and check Love these upgrade videos I ordered the horn upgrade Cheers Ray

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks for the kind words Ray, it is very much appreciated. I’m not sure when the light started mate, I only have experience with my vehicle and it’s a 2010 VX. Once you pull your red reflector out, if there is a plug behind it then you are good to go mate. You won’t be disappointed with the horn upgrade mate, just because the factory horn is so crap. Cheers😎👍

[@MudducksTouringAustralia]

My 2010 GXL only had red covers too mate, just get the new ones and plug in, the wiring is already there. I did that with mine 5 years ago and still working fine. Cheers Steve

[@rayarmstrong5374]

@@MudducksTouringAustralia thanks for the information Steve I will order the replacement ones that Terry brought Cheers Ray

Awesome feedback Steve, thanks for sharing your experience and building on our collective knowledge mate, very cool😎👍

[@samweber2571]

Hi - can you help guide me on installing Illuminated door sills? I know they need to feed and splice into the courtesy door lights but it’s tricky…

[@JafffaAdventures]

Sorry Sam I do not have illuminated door sills so I really don’t have any informed information for you. Good luck with the install mate👍😎

[@maryb732]

Have you a video or information about changing the bulbs on the two lights on the lift gate? I could use some help.

[@JafffaAdventures]

Sorry mate, I do not. Cheers👍😎

[@hantang1668]

is that t10 type connector on the bulb？thanks

[@JafffaAdventures]

Sorry mate, I can’t answer that it’s well above my knowledge base and pay grade😂. Perhaps another viewer will have the answer for you. Have a great weekend mate😎👍

[@touringwithtyrone4933]

I can go forward into the darkness for I have seen the light………

[@JafffaAdventures]

Too funny mate, and yes the beacon will light your path😂😂. Have an amazing weekend😎👍

[@BTBSean0]

I either have to get 200 Series or you need to "UpGrade" 🤣 to a Ranger so I can follow your Mods 😝

[@JafffaAdventures]

Mate, I would not know my way around a Ford if my life depended on it! You would not want to follow my leads with mods, I’d surely steer you wrong🤓. Cheers 😎👍

[@BTBSean0]

@@JafffaAdventures Well you did save me all that coin On the Strut fix ......Keep safe Steve and keep up the good content mate we all appreciate it

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks for your kind words mate, I sincerely appreciate it😎👍

[@lyndenwatson5959]

Hi Terry, Thanks for sharing, the video is really helpful. What bulbs did you end up with for the balance of the interior lighting?

[@JafffaAdventures]

Thanks for the kind words Lynden. I put inexpensive LED’s similar to the inferior ones in the test. They give off enough illumination inside the car and I get the bonus of very little amperage draw. Cheers

[@danielrogers4072]

LEDs produce very little to no UV light, which makes them less visible to bugs…

[@JafffaAdventures]

Good to know Daniel, thanks for sharing 👍😎

[@holgermuller2987]

Terry… what happen today??? Only a 8 min investment vid? I was ready for an hour travel vid,,, next time la… cheers

[@JafffaAdventures]

Best go to one of those sponsored pages mate, they should be able to keep you entertained for the duration😂. Have a great weekend, cheers😎👍
