I dont know about the puddle lights, but I got my entire interior lights in a kit from Precision LED. The kit comes with all the bulbs and even tools to take off the dome/vanity/courtesy light covers. They even have a video on youtube showing how to replace every bulb

One could get kit if one wanted. For me I did not, I just chose the right bulbs for me from JLC and got the Precision LED tool kit and it was good to go.

Yes, there is a trunk light. The OEM light is very dim, or you might've hit the switch so that it does not come on. When you open the trunk, it should be directly beneath the base of the back windshield.

That's way too bright for me, I have all blue LED inside my IS250 2007, Fog Light 8k White, I'm changing little by little, just order Clear Panel #6 so I can hook up a blue LED too.

I know this was a long time ago but big thanks man, got it up and running after 2 failed dremel attempts lol

just got my clear courtesy door lamp set and wondering whats the best led bulb/flank/board that will fit in there. Not trying to spend more then $15-20...I had these before...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lexus-IS-ES-...-/380395680596

but they would flicker if I held the door open more then 7 seconds so I'm going to stick with a name brand led bulb, input needed thanks!
