    I love my ‘08 Tacoma base truck even with over 431,000 miles and runs like a new truck. The only thing I want to change is the orange side marker lights. I call them DRL’s but I was told Toyota calls them side marker lights.
    I have been looking for some super bright LED lights to replace the OEM bulbs. I have checked a couple parts stores in my area however nobody has any. Does anyone know where I can find LED’s to replace the original bulbs?

    Amazon, Ebay, Diode Dynamics, SuperBrightLEDs. There are lots of online stores that carry a multitude of replacement LED Bulbs for almost every socket type out there. I personally grabbed a set off of Amazon. Just pay attention to color temperature if you want them to match the other lighting in the headlight or fog lights. I prefer 5000 Kelvin but usually run 6000-6500K because it is easier to get. If you are going to replace with orange all that stuff about color temp can be ignored as those temp ranges refer to 'white' lights.
