Need to ID socket/bulb - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I'm not the one that bought this socket but am the one to install it in my friends Nissan Altima lol since it is "switchback" type of socket and fits Altima's headlight opening just right. Altimas unfortunatly come with separate bulbs for "daylight" and "turning signal" so i'll get creative......

So... this socket is supposably from latest gen Camry. Can someone confirm that??
And if so - which bulb size is right for it? Per V-Leds i see some Toyotas use "SWACK" type of switchbacks, would like to know if that applies to this socket before buying led for it.

it is used on the 04-06 Solara for the parking/turn signals. It is $8.03 for the socket. the bulb it uses is a 3457a. The "a" is for Amber(orange)

Thanx!! So any 3457 bulb will do, right.... and it's not swack type.....

forums are way more helpful then dealers

Read the Master LED list thread - Master List of LEDs Bulb Sizes & DIY/Tutorials for Interior/Exterior Lights

Toyota vehicles require "...CK" bulbs for turn signals. If its not a CK, it will not work.
