on the front dome light is it possible to change the two individual lights that are activated by pressing the button on either driver or passenger side? I'm not talking about the big one, i've already changed that out, but the two that are arranged in a 4-light cluster on both driver and passenger side

I thought I would post my LED swap out on my back-up lights. On the left is some cheap LED's that the previous owner put in, and on the right are some LED's from VLED. These were the cheap ones on VLED also, not even the highest brightness rating.

I'm sorry if this is here somewhere already (actually I know it is, but I just can't find it, not with the search and not by browsing). I'm interested in switching the dome lights to leds, but my dome light is not like the one in your photos (with the sunglasses compartment), mine doesn't have a compartment at all, and neither do I have a sunroof. Anyone know how can I get my dome light open and what will I find inside, meaning what bulbs will fit?

It's about 27mm, which is not a standard size unfortunately.

For the door panel lights, do you pull down to get the housing off or out? I tried to find a link on how to replace since i bought clear ones.

Is there anyway to put a LED Panel in for the front dome light? Or maybe anything brighter than a 5-SMD 194 wedge bulb?

Any downward firing 194/168 base LED should be fine. You can check this thread out for ideas: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...de-w-pics.html

We have had many*forum members use the Putco 194 bulbs or Philips T10 replacement LED bulbs.

Are there any LED panels that fit with a 2010 dome? It does not have the "dial turn thing"

Pretty much any LED panel should fit in the 2010 dome. I think downward firing LEDs are a more elegant solution though: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ed-boards.html
