Interior LED Light Replacement
Collapse
X
-
Just replaced all interior globes with LED's (minus glove box). Ordered the 'warm white' variety through an eBay seller "gurbbyking1203". Postage was free from Hong Kong, and only took a week to arrive.
I'm certainly impressed! The 'warm white' LED light output is the same colour as the halogen globe but is just that little bit brighter, and obviously slightly more energy efficient.
Total cost was about $21 (6x T10, 4x BA9S, 4x 31mm Festoon), and that included a couple of extra spares.[size=2][b]Prado 120 - 2004 GXL V6[/size][/b]
[size=1]ARB deluxe bar, OME 2" lift, Safari snorkel, BFG A/T's, Ironman winch, LED bar, Redarc DC-DC dual battery, Rhino Rack Pioneer tray, Outback drawers and plenty of goodies inside. [/size]

Yes mate, they are the same ones I got. The BA9S LED's are slightly larger than the standard Prado bulbs in the map reading lights, but I got them to fit without any problems.[size=2][b]Prado 120 - 2004 GXL V6[/size][/b]

The first lot of lights arrived today
T10 1W LED for the doors
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/281065756...84.m1497.l2649
A bit disappointed of the result as it pales in comparison with the centre dome and cargo LED panels which contained 48 LEDs.
will now try these T10 with 8 LEDs pointing out the end

Here are pics of the cabin lit up by 2 48 LED panels. The panel is just resting on the diffuser.

I put one of these in my centre dome light and it works really well, lot more light than the original and a white colour.

So the centre and the cargo ones are simply lying on the plastic? I'm guessing the double sided tape it comes with was useless?
I'm not too sure what kind of T10s I have but I bought a packet of 10 last year and used 1 for my motorbike so had 9 spares. Put the 4 on the prado and I'm happy with the result. Brighter than the stockies and they match the colour with the other LEDs.
Barry you're welcome to see in in live one of these days? I should still have 4 spares if you aren't happy with your ebay ones.

Looks interesting. Hadn't seen any like that before.
I had 6 LED globes in cabin lights, but they didn't cut it so have already ordered the 48 led panels

I have ordered the same as brett004's recommendation, to replace my recent replacement.
