    How do I replace the light bulb in the glove box for a 5th Gen 4Runner (2022) - can someone pinpoint what needs to be removed?

    Thanks!

    I replaced all the interior bulbs with LEDs, and it is far brighter and white than what's in the glove box - it must be an incandescent bulb, that can be replaced.

    It's not, and it can't.

    I had to go look because I don't remember seeing that light. It doesn't exactly spew lumens. My rechargeable flashlight in the center console is my main tool for finding anything in the dark.

    Thinking outside the box, one could mount a 12v power port (cigarette lighter socket) in the knockout in the glove box, and use a marine chart light/ cigarette lighter to illuminate the glove box.
