Yep pull on bottom of glass it pops off. You have to pull pretty hard you'll think you're gonna break it. Vato-zone has em. Just any led that replaces a 194, 168 bulb.

I saw a thread somewhere where a guy put amber bulbs in it. It looked awesome.

That's LA Trail Teams 10. He did a how to with pix either here on Mud or on the FJ Forum (I think the Forum). The lights were much brighter. Try LA thread or lights thread on forum.

Thanks Mud! Driver's side light was out and the owner's manual says bring to dealer. Haha!

Done in 15 seconds!

Hey, one word of caution. Check the brightness of those LED lights at night by being the on-coming vehicle? You don't want to be THAT guy with those lights. If you find yourself saying 'it's not that bad' then it's too bright.

LED is great for the interior because it is much brighter at night, yes. But don't be that guy with an ARB roofrack with a clean unused shovel and hi-lift jack mounted on the side.

I do them for free at the dealer, lot cheaper and people don't cut off their hands when they break the mirror glass
