Default Led's in the car.

OK Obviously I'm really impatient to get my car but what are LED's and what bulbs do I need to change, I'm guessing that they are all the same 194. I'm looking to change the reverse bulbs and some of the interior bulbs. I haven't checked the vanity lights but I'm sure I may need to change those as well. Thanks in advance.

I usually change over to LEDs but the GS interior lighting is white and fine.Probably LED.Didn't check the vanity lights.I always left the stock bulbs.
The reverse light bulbs should be 921's.

Yeah I can't think of any bulbs inside that need changing. The ones that bug me are the outside sideview puddle lamps.

yeah, the puddle lamps are not that bright and also yellowish. there's a thread where someone changed them (forgot the members name) and he said it was a PITA to change them.

There's a few threads on how to change to LED in the puddles.
I did the change in my last Lexus vehicles.My first Lexus lease so I'm not going to bother.
I may do the fogs with LEDs I bought from VLEDs like I did with my other Lexus vehicles.
