Map lights are 194 wedge types. The dome light is a 3175 festoon (I believe). Check out my sedan:
You can get the 194's here: http://www.v-leds.com/194-168-158-LED/c122170-1-2/ and the 3175 here: http://www.v-leds.com/3175-6418-3022...orLanding/true |

Trunk in the sedan is also a 194 wedge (I have 3 6" strips in the back converging to the 194 holder). The license plate lights are also 194 (IIRC).

How did you get those blue lights, got any links to the specific bulbs, I suck ass at anything involving wiring or codes feels bad man.
Wanted to change the interior roof ones, feet if possible, and trunk one would be sweet. is it like any other light bulb unscrew and screw in or what

The dome, map, trunk, and license plate lights just pull out (no unscrewing) once you get their respectable covers off. If you're planning on using strips for the trunk, you'll need to purchase a 194 holder (I believe the link I gave you sells holders [look at the left side of either page]). Just remember, put in the LED, test to see if they turn on (if they don't take out the LED and flip it, then put it back in). You can purchase the strips from the site I gave you, or just search on eBay for either blue or white (will most likely come out blue) LED strips in eBay motors. |

I guess I will swap the pull out ones since the others involve more complicated stuff, I would pay to get it done but no one here lives nearby.
Is it possible to get colored dome ones and take off the dome caps and just replace em or what

If you want different colors, just buy the different colored LEDs. You dont need to change the dome/map, etc.. lights' cover for the color effect.

Thanks for all the links, atm I wanna change the two in the front that you push to turn on and the one in the middle of the roof inside, red would be nice got any link to that and how do I go abouts taking those covers off without damaging anything.
Thanks for dedicating the time, I actually like all the stock lights on the exterior

^ Map light covers are easier taken off if you push up on one at a time like you're turning it on. Then put a screwdriver in and pop it down. I couldn't find an easy way into that light cover until I accidentally pushed up on it, then popped it out in 1 second. Goes back in really easy too.
On the dome there is a place on the edge to put a screwdriver in the pop it off. I changed out my whole interior in like 2 minutes. Simple. Best thing is, it's so easy to change that if you get tired of one color, go with something else. Go with green and red for Christmas! ;)

(for my 09 yaris sedan, thats 2 map lights, 2 license plate lights, 1 trunk light) so when buying bulbs for these 5 lights, i should buy 5 of the same kind, correct? then just a festoon bulb for the dome light? also what does 'IIRC' mean? |
