Dim Interior and weak ac fan

It always seems that toyota's have weak interior lights and a weak fan for the ac. I usually have to close 2 vents so that 2 work well enough.

Is there any way to improve these things?

As for the interior lights, I scraped off the switch contacts with a pocket knife and my light got brighter. Another idea is to get some small interior lights from an auto parts store and install them in your cab. You could even wire them to the main dome light so they work with it. As for the fan, I would suggest maybe trying to install one from a later model truck or some other vehicle. If you really wanted some power in your A/C fan, you could install a leaf blower motor with a power inverter to supply the 115 volts.

make sure its on recirculate, and the air output only blowing from the face vents, nothing else
