Ok I watched enough video and the rear turn signals looked easy enough so I finally broke down and bought the LEDs and did them today. It was VERY easy so now all my exterior lights except the puddle lights have been swithced to LEDs. Still looking for less bright and less white (cooler color temp) LEDs for the interior. I replaced all my interior bulbs on my 2018 R4 Hybrid and they were just WAY too bright.

Front only as they are so bright you see them reflected in reflective road signs in the day time!

Need to find a reverse light option.

What do you use for the Dome Lights? I'm interested in getting the Philips 4000W LEDs, but I thought the Dome Lights are a different size L-28mm?

Thanks!

I replaced all the interior lights with LEDs in my 2018 Rav4 hybrid and I found the 6000k LEDs WAY too bright! For my Rav4P I found some 2700K T10 194 LEDs at Alopee.com I replaced all the interrtior halogens with the Alopee LEDs and I'm very happy with them. I did use a 6000k LED in the cargo area as the lighting there is not great. I am waiting on a 31mm festoon type LED for the Dome light. The OEM says 28 mm but I was told 31 will fit. I will find out soon! I also replaced the backup lights and the turn signals with LEDs as well as installing the sequential mirror lights. I replaced the interior door window switches with lighted ones from Car Trim Home as well as installing the lock bowl LEDs in the interior doors. I installed a wireless carplay dongle that works great but since the wireless charging pad is useless I tend to plug my phone in most times. I have been enjoying doing these modifications and LOVE my Rav4P.

Do you mind taking a photo of the interior with the t10/194 alopee lights? I like how they're the warmer white, not the bright blue-ish white light.

Also, let me know how if the 31mm will fit. I'm interested in how that goes.

Thanks!

Ok....The 31mm festoon LED does fit. Just got them today. Will try to get a decent picture of the 2700K Led interior lights. I am very happy with the 2700k LEDs. Not too bright but brighter than the OEM.

I just upgraded the interior lights with LED light bulbs.

I bought the Lasfit brand per recommendation from YT videos. The whole process was the same for the Prime.

Thank you for this information. I replaced the 2 maps, rear seat, and cargo lamp with these Lasfit bulbs. It was an easy job, and provided a very worthwhile illumination outcome. The interior went from dim to pleasantly bright. Things are easily visible now. I was going to to install ribbon LED's along the cargo sides, but I feel this is unneeded since I installed the Lasfit L-T10 LED in the cargo compartment. I received an extra bulb of each type, so I replaced the interior light of my NC Miata, great improvement there, now I feel compelled to get another set of 28 mm's so I also have a Lasfit LED bulb for the Maita's trunk. I had a different LED in the trunk that burned out last year.

We just tried some 3000K-ish ones in our Prius Prime and found them too yellow and not dramatically brighter than stock. So then we tried SiriusLED off Amazon that are about 6000K - too white but not really any brighter.
Would love to find some at around 4000-5000K that really punch.
