I am pretty sure you blew a fuse. Check the fuse box under the hood on the passenger side..the one marked "dome". It's a 10A mini and ur best bet is to find it at lexus dealer. The ones that sell at auto stores will fit but fuse is lil big and the fuse box wont fully close. I think is $1.73. Hope it helps

Bust open the manual as LiC said and scan the fuses that pertain to those lights. Note that there's spare fuses in the fuse boxes that you can replace the burnt out one with.

Don't let this discourage you from modding. Change the fuse like others are saying and all will be well.
