    LX,

    Just pull the bulb out. Replacements could be found at any auto parts (Kragen, Autozone, even W-mart...) - Take about 10 seconds to do it.

    Cheers,
    Frank.

    Everyone, thanks for all the info. I think I'll just stop by the local Autozone shop for the bulb.

    Sorry to revive a 10 year old thread. But does anyone know the type of bulb that goes in the glove compartment or the led equivalent. Thanks

    Yeah, I went to replace mine. Only to realize mine only comes on when the headlights are on.

    I have a '91 and it is a #74 bulb from any parts store. Takes about 30 secs to replace.

    Cant use a toyota part number for a LED bulb.

    looks to be a #2721 bulb for the LX or #74 bulb.

    Cheers thanks everyone for your replies.
