Default Anyone replace their turn signal relay?

It looks like a pain in the ***. It seems to be above the fuse box. Is there an easy way to get to it versus lying on your back and wiggling your hand past the fuse box?

81980 in this diagram.

Looks like a pain! But isn't that a warranty part?

Warranty part but I am replacing it with a relay that will work with LEDs.

When, and if, you do replace the turn signal lights with LED's, let us know how you made out.

That was one mod I wanted to do but I kept on holding off hoping they would come out with a direct replacement LED bulb that would work with the original relay.

LED technology is advancing really fast. Just look at some of those direct replacement bulbs they have for your house lights.

Those LEDs are nice! I am getting the same relay sans the adjustment on top.

I am going to have to tweak my LEDs I have coming since Toyota uses the SRCK socket versus the one most everyone else uses.
