Anybody replace light in the center armrest and glove box with LED? What size/type of LED and how easy?
Thanks!

 

Here is a big lighting thread.

The size you will need is 74 . Here is what I used for the armrest.

The armrest isnt that hard, however I seached and found a DIY from another gen TL, they are set up the same on the 4G. The glovebox i messed with for a while, before finally giving up, I never open it and its a PITA to get to.

 

Both just pop out. Arm rest is harder.

Pretty big selection of LEDs here:

The site looks amateur and sketchy, but I've order TONS from them and never had any issue.

 

Thanks guys!

 

Hey buckvegas, I see your signature you swap out 85122+. I have that bulbs and want to swap out too. Do you see big difference between stock and 85122+?
Is it easy to just swap out the bulb? Do I need to remove bumper?
See you swap your len on another thread and it's amazing, but I don't think I can or want to do that

 

I notice a big difference by switching to the Phillips bulbs, however the projection also has to do with switching from the cloudy stock lens to the clear tsx lens. You will see an improvment by switching and I don't know if you can remove these without removing the bumper, check the light replacement section in the manual.

 

I know you mentioned it had yellow to it. Does the bulb itself look yellow in the housing? Or is the yellow just what lights up the ground?

 

Its no more yellow than the stock bulb imo. To me it looks white, the output is a lot better than stock. I like the color, sometimes those 6000K white bulbs look blue.

 

Guys, I can do everything except center console and glove box. Can you give me some more hints (buckvegas and CleanCL)?

I can pop the whole thing out a bit but don't see how to get to the bulb. Should I slide the white plastic cover off the base back plastic in some direction or ...?

 

You pop the whole white thing out, then turn it, counter clock wise I think, and it comes off the bulb. The socket screws into the white plastic. Just don't let go of the socket. I did that and the wire is very tight and fell inside the hole, I had to fish it out.
