    I just switched all my light bulbs to LED but having trouble getting out the Parking lights bulbs. Any easy way without taking headlights out? 2015 TRD OR5e857021e4a2d4f7cbb99f0b745acc9a_9ff3d8f4c84e7878c449967a62749d3f2ca6ca99.jpg

    They're basically the same as removing the DTRLs. Are you referring to the lack of space to get to them?

    On my 06, they just had extra long sockets that turned and popped off. I just looked at my '15 and wtf? It has like two connectors and I cannot turn them. Really odd.

    So, I'm in the same boat as the OP.

    You can unbolt the washer fluid tank and move it out the way just enough. I slice my knuckles just about everytime

    It's not the space- it's a different connector than I had in the 06 I owned. I can't figure it out. Turning it does nothing and pulling it feels like I'm removing some sort of sleeve. Like I said there are more than one connector on this bulb socket now.

    Yeah I think I recall seeing 2 connectors but it should turn at the socket to get to the bulb. I wouldn't think they changed anything like that since my '13.
