Default Changing reverse light bulbs

Does anyone know how to change the reverse light bulbs on a 2013 es 350? The stock ones are too dim so I bought hyper white led replacements from ijdmtoy. Thanks in advance

I believe there is a section in owners manual on changing light bulbs.

What size LED bulbs and wattage are you using? Also let me know if the LED works without the Lexus sensing a outage error since the LED draws less amps then a regular bulb.

Thanks,

I have a '12 and no problem using LEDs in the reverse lights.
I went with VLEDS 921 size 19 LEDs bulbs.

That's strange. I guess they're not all made equal. I have no problem whatsoever with the back up lights.
