    I'm trying to replace the interior dome light on our 2009 Tacoma (4 cylinder) surprisingly the bulb has never been replaced before!

    I think over time the heat from the bulb has melted the plastic near the switch where the contacts are.

    I ordered an LED bulb from Amazon but I'm wondering if I should change the entire assembly. If so, what is it even called because I couldn't find it on Rock Auto.

    Thank you everyone for their help!

    ** UPDATE **

    For anyone that's wondering the old candescent light bulb was so old and hot it melted the plastic backing next to the switch. Inserted the LED bulb and had no issues.
