Led lights

[KennyF]

I tried putting LED lights in the personal lights above the rear view mirror. Problem is, I can't get the original bulbs out because of the reflector Toyota put in there. Anyone else have this problem? I'm even having an issue with the side marker light LED bulb being bigger than original. And... Even the license plate LEDS are so long that the end of the LEDS Don't work because of the rubbing. More trouble with using LEDS than my Chevy did.

Just got the bulbs from my map lights out; what a hassle. My fingers are sore from trying to grab the very end of them. I finally got them out by carefully using a small screwdriver and knocking them out without shocking myself or breaking the bulbs. Ouch...hurts to type!

I think I used a finger and a screwdriver but it was still a pain.

I've used 3/8 plastic tube to change bulbs in control panels at work. Makes it easy to grip the bulb. Just slip it over the end of bulb then twist out. Hope this helps.

To not shock yourself just unplug the battery!
