200 Series LED lighting upgrades

[CycloSteve]

LED 80 series review thread (shoutout to @CycloSteve , hope all is well with you man!)

Wow, has it really been 10+ years since installing the kit into my 80? I saw the picture of the booster seat in the 2nd row, and really hit home how long it has been, as my son who sat in that seat just got his license and bought his first car.

How many lumens are you pushing with this kit?

How many lumens are you pushing with this kit?

the large dome light is upwards of 400 lumens by itself per my supplier’s specifications. The mid sized dome light is 200 lumens which have the highest contribution in the kit

for reference a side marker 921 incandescent bulb puts out 100 +\- lumens

Wonder if you could have two modes? Warm white and red.....

Usually I mix the red reading lights with warm white dome lights Color options will be available but there are no plans for color changing LED bulbs/panels

Nice upgrade......interested when you get this sorted out

If you need an older 200 I have a 2011, If you branch out further I have an FJC as well

I am also interested in a warmer color option for 2013 LC. Thanks for doing this!

what’s up man, I’m looking at it to be $52 shipped right now however there is a difference in lighting setups between the LX and LC models. Good thing is it is cheaper than the 100 series kits I offer and this is because the middle row dome/reading light combo is a smaller usable area in the 200. The panels I can fit in the 100 middle row are much larger. But yes, it is $52 for the exact configuration that I posted above which is 4 puddle lights, 2 front row reading lights, 2 mini dome light middle row, 2 reading lights middle row, and 1 full sized dome light in the rear. I am looking and working with others here on the variations between LC and LX 200 models

As far as replacing the bulbs, I would ideally want to replace all the factory bulbs so that the color of light matches throughout

the other color kits like warm white, red, blue, etc are slightly more pricy because I can’t order the items in bulk like I do the standard white LED. Demand is lower on the other colors but it will be offered sometime in the future.

$52 sounds killer--I had usually gone with PrecisionLED, but I think I priced out their kit to more than double what you're offering. I'm definitely in for a standard white kit once you're ready

Definitely! I will go through this thread and get everyone who requested a set ordered up when the time comes!

Thank you, I will reach out once ready!

@Whiskerz I actually have an FJC kit to replace the dome lights (2) and the map lights (2) I used to sell a lot of the 4runner, FJC, GX kits

As for the 200 series that you have, do you have the same interior setup as what I posted here:

Looking at the pictures you posted. It looks like a great update! Would definitely look at purchasing a kit when they become available. 2021 lc 200. Thank you for your contributions!

Any chance you have a recommendation for fog light replacement on a 13 LC?

Where are your LEDs sourced from? Bonus points for Japanese products.

 

[afgman786]

Looking forward to the warm led kit on 1st gen 200s! Hate my bluish LEDs I put in

Sadly, I won’t be landing the “Japan” points on this one. I use a US based supplier, though the products are made not made in the US.

I had a bad experience with sourcing outside the US, mainly communication and replacement base …so I don’t tread those lines anymore.

I could easily make more profit by sourcing outside the US but I like my peace of mind

Following…will probably try a set for a 2010LC.

@Tommy Dwyer and @afgman786 I will reach out when ready!
