ROFL... i was making my coffee and doing dishes, come back and i see this lighting thread and... LOL you guys are too much...

Ok, the lights in the stock mirror puddles are NOT leds... Joeb427, because you have a white car, you have alot of color options because color will stand out on a white car (white is the best color you know ) Reguardless of the color you'll want 194 Flank bulbs, i use hi-power cuz when i ordered my lites they were currently out of flank in blue. Changing the lites can be found in the lighting mods thread HERE

I'll stay with white.I'm surprised the window sticker clearly says LED puddle lights.
I recently ordered some PIAA extreme whites to go in the puddles.
Thanks,Llama.

tfz_hebe89 just posted his sticker showing the LED puddles like my sticker.

The inside and outside should have different names!!!
There's no puddles in the car unless you leave the windows open in a rain storm.

Moonroof!!! it will be more then a puddle though more like a fish tank.

I think the mirrors are called courtesy lamps not puddle.

I think the puddle lamp on the window stick is for the Footwell light.. which is LED...

Bottom light on the side mirror is just a bulb....
I have custom LED in there that makes it brighter then stock light...

I dont see why Lexus just didnt install all LEDs on the car...in and out. it wouldve saved me a lot of trouble of replacing all the regular bulbs.

btw Judd, would you mind changing out my puddle lights, parking/city lights, and fogs for me? I got the interior and trunk handled already.
