List of bulbs to do a full LED swap out on the interior / trunk lighting?
#17
Here is what I used:
Interior: LP Series LED Package 2 (LP4)
Puddle Light: LP5 Frost White (LP5)
Trunk: LP Series Cool White
The LP4 interior ones are not super bright, but it's significantly brighter than stock already.
If you want something super bright, get the MaxRS LEDs from the website
And for the puddle light, I believe the LP5 is the brightest....

Did the swap this afternoon. I didn't have the problems with the domes as RWSeattle did, most were pull the lense, pull the bulb and swap... but the puddle light in the drivers well was a bear. You can't pull it straight out. You have to pop out the housing which then swiftly gets lost in the dash and is impossible to put back into the housing without direct access. I had to pull the lower panel (two screws and a tug on the pannel to remove) but popped a fuse figuring that out. I'll drop some pictures in a bit so nobody else has the same issue.

I bought just a pry tool and it worked to replace all lights. I finally completed puddle lights, which were the most challenging replacement among all other lights. Lexus quoted $160 for the labor! But once you learn how to replace one, the other one becomes a piece of cake. I still cant forget that night where I could not re assemble the rear mirror lol.

My car is a lease so I don't think i'm going to mess w/ the puddle lights...seems to be too much of a hassle.

Yes, it is possible. In fact, the vanity light is much easier to replace due to the soft material around the plastic enclosure on the roof. The original bulb is just a regular wedge bulb/P168.
You just need a proper plastic prying tool . The prying point is either left or right side of the enclosure but is always on the same side for both vanity light.

Thanks for the info. $32 bucks tho? That's a bit steep. I bought the same tool on amazon for $4.98. Granted it's coming from China but I'm sure it will get the job done, lol.
