Interior Lights 3rd Gen. (2001)

I have a few "dark" switches and elements in my 2001 4Runner.
I looked at factory manual I have in my glove box, but couldn't find any information of how to change the bulbs there and if there is a bulb existing at each particular location.

If anyone changed any of the bulbs showed bellow or have any information on this issue, could you share such information.

See images for details:

Which one you are up to, 3rd Gen or 4th Gen? I have both trucks and they both fitted with ARB bumpers.
If you're in Toronto, then it's just easier to meet and discuss all in details. Where are you? Pass by my place if you want. I'm at Dufferin and Hwy7 area.

Richmond Hill is 2 minutes away from me.
I have modified Sahara bumper. Which one you like Sahara or Deluxe?
Sahara was only available for Prado, while Deluxe was available for both Prado and Tacoma.
BTW, ARB does not make bumper for 4Runner. You can use either Prado or Tacoma bumper with slightly modification. Prado bumper is wider and sticks further front compare to Tacoma one. Interesting side note as Prado Sahara is wider then Prado Deluxe bumper.
In my personal case (2001 Limited) I have wide plastic fenders, so Prado version was a better fit for me.
Pass by my place, and I can show you the details.
As of the price. I got my Sahara for $1'150 + $125 shipping = $1'275 USD = $1'405 CDN. I drove down to States to pick it up, if you want it shipped here, it will run you ~$350 USD in shipping, so you'll end up with $1'650 CDN +Tax + Brokerage = ~$1'900-1'950 CDN. If you go with Tacoma Deluxe, it will run you $770 for the bumper and total of $1'450-1'500 CDN

ARB:
Prado Sahara


Prado Deluxe


Tacoma Deluxe


As you can see Tacoma one has different tube triangular supports and more curve to mimic the shape of the body, while Prado is more square on the corners and sticks further front.

My bumper is sitting at my backyard. It slightly different in outside shape then pre-99, but if you'd consider, you can take a look at it as well.

I'd have to check if the mounts can be moded so the bumper fits my body line but that sounds good alex... yours has those funky little fog lights in it right?
