Default How to change liscense plate bulbs GS300?

Can anyone tell me what I need to remove to get at the liscense plate bulbs in an 01 GS300? Do I need to remove the plastic strip where the key hole is? If so how is that done?

Remove the inside liner of the trunk and you have direct access to the bulbs. I hope this help.

Yes, you have to remove the trunk liner. The plastic inserts have a tunnel thru them, I used a flat head screw driver inserted in the tunnel to pry them out. The only tricky part is removing the plastic cup/tray around the "safety release handle". Look inside the cup and you will see 2 small slots, I used a small flat head screw driver inserted into the slot and one side popped out, just be gentle and don't force the issue.
