    Hello all,
    Need help on finding a company that sells Dash Lens. I have a 2002 Toyota Tacoma. I’m also replacing the Dash Bulbs with LEDs. No fancy color just upgrading to LEDS. Dealership says the Part Number for the Dash Cluster Lens is Discontinued.
    Thanks in Advance

    Not sure about the lens... If it's scratched might be able to clean it/polish it up.

    For LEDs, go take a look at

    There is apparently one for sale on e-bay. YMMV.

    Otherwise, yeah, sand and polish the lens with a polisher. :notsure:

    I put in some dash lights from superbrightleds about 2 years ago. Just a few months ago I had 2 burn out. Not saying that will be everyone’s experience, but it was mine. I’m actually curious for other options. I really don’t want to take my dash apart for a 3rd time.

    Mequiers makes plastic x polish. I used it on mine lens that was badly scratched and it came out excellent. Just a thought.

    IDK why anyone would use LEDs, unless you just want some crazy color. They don't last. The stock incandescent bulbs last 20+ years.
