    Hello all, I'm wondering what colors clocks the 3rd gen 4runners have in them just below the ignition. I did an LED swap on my entire dash in my Tacoma but the clock is still orange.

    Information is greatly appreciated

    I second that. All dash lights are green in the 3rd Gen 4Runners, unless someone went in and changed all the bulbs. I actually just pulled a ton of bulbs out of a junker (they're like 15 bucks for a pack of ten!! It's absurd!) and most of them are tinted green. I didn't check the clock though, I'm almost positive it was gone... but the coloring of the digital clock would be a bulb within that assembly. Not sure if it can be changed.

    Mine's greenish, but I'm not sure if that's due to the color of bulbs, or because it's that (I don't know what you call it, neon?) old-school clock type. Mine looks exactly like this: http://twiga-used-parts.com/Toyota-...rf-Digital-LED-96-97-98-99-00-01-02_p_72.html

    It's an LED back-lit counter, I'm almost positive. there's a lot more science that goes into clocks lol but back to the subject at hand. Not sure if that LED is wired into the circuitry of that clock or not. You maybe (?) can change it?
