Interior lighting is pretty bad.
Anybody do any upgrades?

 

seriously huh?? its pretty well known around these parts about the crap interior lighting.

there is virtually no upgrades

 

How long to you need to keep the lights on? Mine come on long enough to find the key hole or the start button then it goes off, I don't need any lights inside other than than.

Or maybe I misunderstood and you don't like the dashboard / speedometer lights, I like the way the dash looks lit up at night so I have no problem with that either

 

no upgrades. more bugged by buttons not being backlit than the overall lighting.

 

I mean the overhead lighting.
Usually there's a 3 bulb in front and a two bulb in back like the IS had.

 

I actually like it. It has much more than my 02 ES did.
Between the LED that keeps the console illuminated and the LEDs that come on when I come up to the car, I think it is subtle but stylish.

The map lights are pretty bright and direct when needed.

Now I haven't sat in the back seat, so I don't know how well lit it is for a passenger.

I dont think the interior lighting is to bad... the trunk is where it really sucks..
but how cool is it that our cars have LED interior lights....

 

I wouldn't mind if they were a tad brighter, but currently they get the job done.

 

No issues with lighting. The trunk is an issue in my book. I couldnt even put 2 suitcases in the trunk.

 

It could be a little brighter, but you will get use to it. It is a foucs light rather than spread out like non-LED map lights. The trunk light is weak, but can be mod easily. There are quite a few thread here as to upgrading the trunk lights to LED.

 

I think the lights serve it's purpose. They're bright enough to read something if need be.. plus they don't attract attention like normal bright lights in other cars. And I agree with the trunk.. way to small.. I have to play tetris to get my golf clubs in there!

 

Yea, I agree the other day I noticed how weak the trunk lights are... All the interior lights are white and then I open my trunk and see this nasty yellow dull looking light and I almost threw up! lol...

 

i love the lighting inside but i understand what you mean its not enough lightin to see things i guess it could be a lil brighter.

 

I like the lights that light up from the bottom side of the side mirrors. It looks really cool at night as you approach the car

 

Lexus saves a whopping $5 on that light!
