    I have the bulb from a 4Runner 4x4 selector switch and it had an amber sleeve over it which I removed but it still emits a yellow/amber light.
    I would like a whiter light if possible.
    Any ideas?

    Middle of the page, search for "79674-S3N-941"

    You want the incandescent clear lamp, Type-B
    They're $2 each

    The enviro controls are lamps, the rest of the dash is LED.
    Why?
    The rest of the dash is on any time the truck is on. The enviro controls (and switches) are only on with the headlights, so they last.

    I tried LEDs in my '08, and they were horrible.

    The Clear lamp, Type T4.
    It is identical to the factory lamps that I removed.

    ok , what I was trying to say the same bulb works the temp. light and the mode control light so if the temp. control light works and mode control is not illuminated, the light transfer plastic (similar to optic fiber) must have a break or misaligned where the two separate taking one source of light (one bulb) from the temp. to control mode, so replacing the bulb won't fix the problem. I have switched bulbs but the mode control illumination is still out unless of course you hit it (smack the mode control knob) so bulbs are not the problem, because the temp. control light still works after switching bulbs. So if you replaced the bulb and it's fix good, you got it, if not I will look into it and hopefully have an answer, it could be just my situation, just trying to help

    This happens to me all the time easy change just don't over turn the bulb since there isn't too much material on the backside

    This is the direct replacement through napa:
    Manufacturer Part Number : 639-007
    napa part # OES 6000107
