Im looking for someone that makes or knows where to get the LED dome lights for my 60. All the threads i have searched are old or have outdated contacts. George doesnt make them anymore, fullylitLED seems to be out of business....... and so on.

Yeah SuperBrightLED is the spot that most seem to be getting them.
Pfrans... Supporting mud venders
Got mine on Amazon. This is front only, but am very happy with the output.

PFRAN is where i got mine. And the backups too. Its like day time in my rig now!
+1 for superbrightleds.com. This for the front.
Natural white looks a little better than cool white. IIRC, the rear bulb is wider than the front, so measure your current bulbs to be sure. I recall the option of using a 6-pot for the back, but the front will only take a 4-pot (still WAY brighter than incandescent).
Note that the festoon SMED bulb does not fit well into the rear fixture. The circuit board is not parallel to the lens, and at an angle, it bumps into the bulb holder and will not let you position it so it shines down into the cargo area. You have to VERY CAREFULLY bend the entire fixture downward, being careful not to snap it in half. Ask me how I know this.

I have suprebrights in my dash and in the dome light in my Tacoma. I have Pfran's backup lights in both rigs. Both companies have good customer service, but Pfrans is a forum vendor and a super nice guy to deal with. I would gladly do business with him again if i can find something there to put an LED into, haha.
I have an LED board from FullyLitLED

+1 for Pfran. In both my 62 and 100.

Thanks everyone. Got my two LEDs thru Amazon for $5.36 total. Put em in... Its awesome! No more yellow-orange light.
Where is a good place to pickup a front dome light cover? I have the all to common old bulb burn hole in mine.

Yeah I am in need of one of the covers as well, mine crumbled when I touched it so it is gone.
This is one of those things that will be on my "fun stuff" upgrades.
Got mine from the dealer as I could not find a used one locally

Idiot question here: is there any soldering involved or is this plug and play? I also read some reviews online and some people had trouble blowing fuses, any danger of that here?

Sam Stewart (Mud handle) at Lowe Toyota has them or can get them, can't remember which. The dome lens cover itself is available, but if you're looking for a lens cover for the cargo light, the whole assembly must be purchased.
For the LED situation id vote for Pfran i have all the dome LED's in my 62 and there super good and the back up lights help so much at night when wheelin. Also my dad has some in his 100 there a big improvement even in that.

Go Pfran - good stuff.
Does anyone know what the largest SMD panel (in MM or inches) that will fit in the front/rear dome light?
