GX 14+ tails on 10-13
Yes, they are clear and may not be the best looking tail lamps ever.
But can you swap them into 2014 lamps into a 2010 thru 2013?
Thanks

From what I was told they are but I have yet to see a set off of a GX to compare.

I heard back from the seller. They are red LED up top...
I agree the smoked gives them a nicer look on darker colors. I have light silver, Tungsten Pearl where all clear might look nice.

I purchased and installed the 14+ tails today. My local dealer price matched the online price.
My factory's red clear are for sale now. I will post some pictures once it's nice out!

I have ordered a set from Sewell.
Lexus has moved away from the clear lens as they did with the 2013 RX when they changed to the spindle grille.

I love my set. Nice to see that we have the same color combo. Please let me know what you think.
I might get the lightest possible smoke tail lamp tint for the reverse light reflectors, so all of the lights match from the rear.

Starting in the early 2000s, Lexus made clear taillights very popular. Today, its all about bold contrast and lines when the light is off.
