interior bullbs diy
can anyone clarify if all the interior light bulbs are 194 wedges? im not talkin about all the gauge lights or accessory light just all the door lights and courtesy lights on the roof next to the handles and the main dome light. if anyone can posts a link to a diy to change these in a 2000' GS300 it will be greatly apreciated. i searched but i did not find anything on it. sorry if i missed it but im pretty sure i looked really close b4 i asked. theres one thread i found on this but all the pictures for the diy were out-dated., so it was no help.. please dont start the noob talk that sh!* gets annoying. i dont own a GS im doin this for a friend.i can easily take it appart myself but the fact that its not MY car i would rather go in this with a little know how b4 i start. i told him i could go on the forum and find out how to do it for him just so he has piece of mind. so here i am. i found the one for my 2GenIS very helpful. so im hoping theres one for GS. thank you for you help and time.

The rear lights are 194 and the door lights are as well. Just pop the plastic piece off with a flathead screwdriver. Wrap it with a cloth or something so you don't scratch the plastic or surrounding materials.
The closest thing I could find to a DIY is this. Jacksonvp supplies all the bulb types you need for the interior lights. His car looks awesome. Hope it helps you somewhat.

They are pretty easy to remove like they have said. Just a small flathead and pop the plastic covers off. The license plate ones, you just have to remove the screws that hold in the plastic plate to access the bulb. Most of them are 194's. I think the ones for the front footwell and glove box are 74's and the courtesy light is a festoon 211. I order a lot of my leds from superbrightleds.com. I have not been able to find one to replace the ones in the sun visors.

No problem.
I'm also going to let you know that in many states, if not all, it is illegal to have sidemarker lights any color other than amber/orange. Cops normally won't bother you for it, but it's just a heads up.
