It’s not “factory focus mindset approach” and certainly not Japanese quality as Matt sells (the gold standard), but SuperBrightLEDs does have warmed colored festoon bulbs. I don’t want the more blue/bright white LEDs, so I went with those for now until a brighter, higher quality, longer lasting warm festoon LED shows up on the market. @ToyotaMatt …. Got a source for something like that?Any chance these are made in warmer white, around 2700-3000k?
I'm swapping out a leaky heat core today (and maybe into next weekend). There are three options with this job: 1) do it yourself; 2) pay a shop lots of $$$$ and save yourself the aggravation; 3) burn it to the ground.
I'm deep into #1 but #3 is still an option.

Did you have to do anything to help the cables slide in these? A couple of mine are hard to move, namely the hot/cold selector, but the valve moves freely. I need to get that functional before cold weather gets here.I spent well over an hour reconnecting a couple of the sheathed slider lines. Struggled trying to reattach two of the U-shaped clips that secure the slider line housing and could never fully seat the clips. Finally hit upon a technique using a 10 mm wrench and pair of vise grips for popping in the clips. Setting the slider line for the valve on the firewall was very frustrating as I could not get the control to fully shift between hot and cold. Eventually discovered that the valve is frozen and will not move. New one on order.

That would be awesome, or even use it as an accent to the interior. Maybe just the backside of the sunshades and accents throughout the truck? I just picked up the grizzly bear Pendleton blanket for mine. Going to make a custom leather strap setup to keep it bundled in the rear.Man, I’ve been thinking about doing almost exactly that for a couple years - some kind of Pendleton fabric. Did you remove all the windows and tuck the headliner in or glue it right up against the weatherstrip?
Over the humps and the impulse to burn it to the ground has passed. Tips on diving into a heater core swap: 1) do it all in one session; easier to remember what fits where; 2) label stuff; 3) photo stuff. I only did about 20% of these tips since I've taken about 3 weeks on this and I've only taken 2-3 photos of wiring. I did label non-stock connections.

All this talk is making me think I need to clean mine out. My system barely moves any air on full blast so I thought it was the fan. I'll add this to the to-do list when I remove my dash.which specific heater core did you find that works? I ended up having my OEM heater core re-cored. From my experience the aftermarket heater cores don't mate properly with those two cooper tubes that are OEM from toyota. Heater core swap does suck....
