What LED bulbs fit a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S?

A 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S uses T10 wedge bulbs (W5W/194/168) for the map, door, footwell and license plate lights, and festoon bulbs for the dome and trunk. AutoKitShop stocks 15 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S kits covering 1986–2021, each supplied with the correct adapters so no separate bulbs are needed.

Does a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S need CANbus error-free LEDs?

Most 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S vehicles built after 2005 monitor the interior lighting circuit and will show a bulb-failure warning with a plain LED. A CANbus error-free kit includes the resistor or decoder that mimics the original load, so the warning stays off. Older vehicles with a simple on/off circuit run fine on standard LEDs.

How long does it take to install 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S interior LED lights?

Allow 15 to 30 minutes. Switch the light off, pry the lens off with a plastic trim tool, pull the old bulb, push in the LED and test it before refitting the lens. If a bulb does not light, rotate it 180 degrees — LEDs are polarity sensitive. No wiring, coding or tools beyond a trim tool are required.

Will 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S interior LEDs cause flickering?

Not with an error-free kit. Flickering on a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S is normally caused by the body control module pulsing the circuit to test for a failed bulb. The built-in load resistor in an error-free kit absorbs that pulse. If you already own a non-CANbus kit, adding a decoder resolves it.

What colour temperature is best for a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S?

White (6000K) matches the factory LED signature on late-model 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S cars and looks the most OEM. Warm white (3000K) suits older cabins with filament-era trim. Ice blue and purple are aesthetic choices. Colour is selected per bulb, so you can keep the dome white and tint the footwells.

What Is a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S Interior LED Light Kit?

A 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S interior LED light kit is a set of direct-replacement bulbs that swap into the factory dome, map, reading, vanity, trunk, glove-box and footwell sockets without cutting or rewiring. (chassis codes GR86, GT86, T16, T18) AutoKitShop lists 15 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S LED kits covering model years 1986 to 2021. Kits for this model run from 2-piece to 11-piece sets. Each bulb is rated at 300 lumens and roughly 3x the brightness of the original incandescent lamp, at a fraction of the current draw, with a 50,000-hour service life. Kits are supplied as complete sets with the correct socket adapters, so nothing needs to be ordered separately. If a bulb does not light on first fit, rotate it 180 degrees, because LEDs are polarity sensitive. Colour options are white (6000K), ice blue, warm white (3000K) and purple.

2 x Front map/reading lights

How Do You Install LED Interior Lights in a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S?

Dome light: The lens on the 86/BRZ pops off toward the front of the car. Pry at the edge near the sunroof switch panel.
Door courtesy lights: These are in the lower door panel. The housing clips out with a trim tool. Swap the bulb and clip back in.
Trunk light: Located on the driver's side of the trunk lid trim. The whole unit twists out.

Will LED Bulbs Trigger a Warning Light on a 86 / BRZ / Scion FR-S?

The 86/BRZ/FR-S uses Canbus monitoring. Without load resistors, LED bulbs in the interior can trigger flicker or a bulb-out warning. This kit includes Canbus-ready bulbs that prevent those issues ??plug and play.

Which Colour Temperature Should You Choose?

White (6000K) gives the cleanest look and the best light output for daily driving. Ice blue adds a custom touch that matches the blue instrument cluster lighting on the BRZ and 86. Purple is for show builds.

If you're autocrossing, tracking, or just daily driving your 86, better interior light means you can see what you're doing at night without fumbling. The AutoKitShop 11-piece kit covers every bulb in one box.
