    Hey y'all!

    This is my first post and I absolutely love this forum. I've learned so much and hope to be able to contribute in the future!

    My question is on those little, shaped metal plates inside the interior lights. The ones you press on (the plastic cover) that help turn on the lights? What is it called?

    My Rock Warrior's drivers side interior light is messed up, and that metal plate is all jacked up. I'll be taking the entire head unit off soon for an aftermarket system install and plan on fixing the bulb connection (it's also messed up) but I think I'll need to replace that metal plate, and possibly the connector as well.

    I'm new the to the Tundra world but have been working to get here for a long time. I haven't had any luck searching around google for this part or even what it's called.

    So what is that metal plate called as well as the bulb connector for interior lights?

    Sorry, no pics at this time, my truck is in the shop cause I messed up a repair and have to pay a pretty penny for that :puke::smack:

    Thanks!

    You may be able to find individual parts, but my guess is you will have to buy the entire light fixture from Toyota. Possibly the entire overhead console. Look up 2010 Tundra map light, dome light, overhead console.
    A quick search shows entire consoles used, on ebay.
