Do the math. for interior and comfort lamps

When the 2018 Toyota Tacoma is in dire need of additional interior lighting, LEDs are the answer. Replaced two map and dome lights with three LEDs I bought from Autozone for $32. The two front map lights work great but the overhead light still doesn't provide enough light to see the rear seating area. Did a little research and came across them. They got good grades, but not as good as I'm used to, so there were still some doubts. In general, the truth lies in 3 star reviews and after reading a few I was convinced. I paid $10 for a single LED at Autozone and it performed only slightly better than the stock bulb. Every post I've read says at least two bulbs will work and no one has complained about the amount of light they put out. They come in a pack of 4 bulbs for $7 each or $1.75 (if all 4 work) even if only one worked I still got them for $7 much less than the Autozone. It came tonight and I couldn't wait. to connect it. First bulb, first time and WOW what a difference! Well after I swapped end to end because I swapped (polarity). Again WOW what a difference! I don't usually feel obligated to post items I purchase, especially the day I receive them, but this is an exception. The design is such that all 12 leds are directed towards the cockpit, the light is not wasted like the other one I bought. That way if you insert it backwards (like me) and drop it while trying to take it off (like me) you can pick it up and swap the ends if you know how you inserted it the first time .
