what size did you get? It should be 27/28mm festoons

Just ordered mine, as well... Don't need 6, but for less than ten bucks and 2 day shipping for being a Prime member, you can't go wrong! Can't wait to be part of the brighter cargo area club

Can someone who has bought replacement cargo and vanity mirror bulbs for their 2016 model recommend a link to purchase?

I bought these Jtech from Amazon. These are decent. There might be brighter ones out there, but these worked ok for me. I might try brighter ones for the cargo area.

Just wanted to thank NXOwner for the write up... I finally got off my behind and just put in the bulbs. An extra +1 for the link to Amazon.

These are the ones I bought, from a suggestion earlier on in this thread. Cheap, easy to install, and you get six of them.

we got a 2016 rav4 for the wife, and it comes with the exact same type, I replaced the stock for the T10 LED's. I like it better, now have to order some feston type for the NX.

just pop the cover off and take a quick peek to see which bulb type. I kinda doubt they'd go back to the festoon style.

Wait until you pick up your NX and then open the lens cover on those lights to see which style of bulb there is. Tip, take a photo of the bulb once you open the cover, as well as measure the bulb with a ruler (or better yet, a caliper).

On my 2015, the non-LEDs were:
  • the rear turn signals
  • the visor vanity mirror lights
  • the cargo area lights
  • the backup/reversing lights
I have the premium headlight option, so all my headlíghts (highbeam/lowbeam) are LEDs.

I've replaced everything but the backup/reversing lights with LEDs.
