How to Install the Automatic Gear Shift Light in the Toyota Calya?

Model: Toyota Calya MK 1 - Years 2016-2023
Part: Dashboard

If you intend to customize the interior of your vehicle by installing a light that illuminates the area around the automatic gear shift (aftermarket lights), follow these steps: remove the knobs for adjusting the air flow and speed. Lower the gear shift lever and remove the rubber under the handle, then pull off the gear shift knob and use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws under the air flow adjustment housing. At that point, unclip and remove the trim panel. Take the light socket to be installed and, using a soldering iron, connect the two power wires of the bulb. Reinstall the light socket and connect the power wires of the lamp to the vehicle's lighting system. Finally, reassemble all components to complete the job.
