LEDs to replace interior lights: Which ones? - Toyota Yaris Forums

I replaced all those lights you mentioned with white LEDs. The white color I use is a 6500K, which is a cool, bright white, with a very slight hint of purple. Also called Super White or Hyper White. No trace of blue.

To do the console control knobs I ordered 3x Super White Neo Wedge Based LED Bulbs (30% brighter) from www.autolumination.com Make sure you get Type B.

For my gear shifter I ordered 1x Tri-Power 3 LED Bulb from www.autolumination.com

For the map lights (next to the rear view mirror), I used a 194 replacement bulb from www.vleds.com. I ordered 2x V-LEDS HID WHITE 11 SMT LIGHT BULBS. These will also work for the parking lights and license plate (which I will order later, because I wanted to test the fit and color before I ordered more).

I replaced the 31mm festoon bulb for the cabin light (middle of roof with the switch for ON/OFF/DOOR) with a V-LEDS HID WHITE 48 M-SMT PCB light board.

For the trunk light, I replaced the 36mm festoon bulb with a V-LEDS HID WHITE 30 M-SMT BULBS light board.

I cannot begin to tell you how great the bulbs are from VLEDS!!! The customer service is good. The quality of their bulbs is amazing, price is affordable, and output is so bright. Most importantly, each of the VLED bulbs are the exact same color, so your interior will match perfectly. The accessories for the VLED blulbs (the wiring and festoon blanks) are all interchangeable.

I will take pictures of my interior lighting modifications.
