Cargo light

Has anyone removed the cargo light on a 3rd gen? I want to install a brake light pulse. I don't see any screws....almost looks like the cover is glued on. Thanks for any help.

 

Gain access from the headliner inside... it has LED lighting so they figured no need to do any maintenance!

 

It is glued and they will leak through there if the seal is broken.

 

Thanks!!

Thanks!!

 

So.............

How does one change a failed lamp properly?

 

take it to the dealer

 

The LED light bulb should last a long time...

 

depends on the body style of your truck. the access cab and double cab have totally different light setups and as previously mentioned, be sure to seal it up tight when done.

 

My light cover broke and I need to replace. Anyone know how to install a new light cover? I found a garbage can on my tonneau cover. I think it flew off the garbage truck arms and hit my brand new taco.

 

I have yet to find a way.

 

Pull down headliner, gain access to screws on the back. Only way out.

 

Dealer wants $160 for the setup. They say it will be about 3 hours charged labor. I'm planning on pulling down the headliner myself. Anyone know if there are any replacement options other than the OEM cargo lamp? I've scoured online but have only found up to 2016 model. Nothing for 2017.

 

LMAO...headliner pull for service. This keeps getting better and better.

 

Technically, headliner pull for collision repair. Something busting up the housing probably wasn't considered a maintenance item. Those LEDs are *supposed* to last pretty much forever.

 

That Sucks!

 

Taco351, have you found a product that is the same size to replace the cargo lamp? I can't even find the cargo lamp online. Only from the dealer.

 

No I haven't. Sorry.
