Question buttons on rearview mirror....help!

we own a 2010 lexus gs 350 awd, i dont drive the lexus as much as i do my it my wifes and i drive a 2010 tundra, but i was driving her car last night and i pulled up to the driveway and wanted to push the homelink button to open the door but i had a hard time finding the buttons they are not lite up. but in my tundra they are clearly lite up so u know what button ur hitting. i examined the buttons and they both are clearly the from design, shape and layout. is there a way i can turn it on? do ur light up?

Mine do not, and I completely agree with you. I'm disappointed that Lexus cheaped out on them.

Try saying "open sesame", that may work better

No lights here either. I programed the garage door to the left most homelink button, so I simply run my thumb along the bottom of the rear view mirror and feel it, when I'm not saying open sesame.

no light, no light

the interior lighting is one of the area Lexus did not do well, at least to quite a few members here.

The other day, when my wife was driving, I noticed that the lighting inside the car was far brighter. I think we saved her memory position with different light settings.

I never went back to play with the lighting controls to see if there were settings I could adjust better that I hadn't done so yet in my memory position. But this just reminded me I should go and check.

I don't think this fixes the problem of the OP but maybe to those others who think the lights are too dim, there may be some more adjustment that could be done. I remember setting my lighting based on how I wanted the instrument cluster to look, rather than the interior lighting.
