I decided to try the bulb finder thing that they have and it worked out pretty well, except

1. I managed to get the wrong dome light, the bulb was "too short" to fit into our clips.
2. I ordered amber rear marker lights, and I cannot install them into my taillights. I think this may be because the 09 has the LED tails which seem to have those amber lights built into them somehow. If anyone knows how to get to that bulb let me know.

Over all everything else is great, and the only places I dont have LEDs yet is the 4 turn signals, and the Third brake light.

just got my bulbs today. they all went in nicely except for the reverse lights. it seems to be kind of loose because the bottom part isn't long enough. anyone else have this problem?

I just wanted to add I also had this same problem, the connector is the exact same but the bottom on the light isn't long enough, or too wide, however you want to look at it.

I actually used my Dremel to shave some of the plastic off around the LED light, took about 5 mins a light and I filled in any thin spots with silicone, but after that they fit in perfect.

BTW the lights look AMAZING!!!! Unbelievable how great they look being such a cheap mod!!! Thanks Slayor!

Ryan- thats weird. Nupeprime has my old leds, and the ones i have are the ones on the list and they worked for us. I have an extra set of 921s at my place. I need 7440 for the evo.

Tacoma's from 2001 -2010 all take 921 bulbs for reverse lights, I also replaced my interior, license plate and reverse lights with Superbright LEDs sometime ago and had no issues on my 2009.

After:

A few tips for install:
for the licence plate lights and dome I had to bend out the leads on the leds to make sure they made proper contact:

also i used a butter knife to pop out the map light covers but then had a hell of a time getting the actual bulb out so I pulled off the entire unit where i could push the bulbs out from the top.

To get the overhead console out there is a single screw in the sunglass holder, once that is out pull the unit from the rear and it will pop out.. be sure not to loose any of the metal tab pieces as they can go flying....

overall a cheap and easy mod:top:
