I just received a set too from the same eBay seller. Wrong connector. The assembly is the right size, but the pins are larger and wider than my connector. I contacted the seller and will hopefully get them replaced. Question... I actually don't care that much about the projector logo... I just want brighter, whiter light. For 16 bucks, I figured I take a chance. Do yours have brighter, whiter light in addition to the projection, or are these only projectors with no inward-facing light, or are they like the factory - less white, less bright light? The pic posted above looks like brighter white light in addition to the projection. Thanks!

FWIW I made a comment when ordering to double check the connectors because they were two different sizes , also mentioned the vehicle.
Unfortunately if your looking for brighter you need to look elsewhere. these have leds that illuminate similar to stock and they also have the
down firing projector. slightly dimmer than stock color temp is similar to stock. wish I took a closer look when I pulled them.

Thanks. That's helpful. At least replacements with the right connector are starting to show up out there. I used to be able to just swap out the plug-in incandescent bulbs with leds - until these newer modules replaced those. I'll search around.

The ones I received fit my wife's 2015 RX. They have the older connector (for parts with factory incandescent bulbs). I had already upgraded all the interior RX bulbs to much brighter LEDs - years ago, but I wanted to see what these looked like as a comparison. I agree - inward-facing brightness is about the same as my stock LC. Maybe a bit whiter color temp. I showed them to my wife as she was heading off to work. She said: "They look silly. Take them off." LOL

heh well ive had them on for a week and I'm kinda agreeing with your wife !, prob will put the stock ones back in.
If these were substantially brighter I'd reconsider, rice thing has been played out many years ago.

Dude just can't seem to get the order right the first time! At least he's responsive and punctual.

Just received mine over the weekend and installed them yesterday. They fit well in the housing, but didn't get the "click" secure fit for the connector - though didn't bother me. The lights worked well, but he sent me the wrong projector - F Sport projector, instead of Lexus. Sent him a message through my Ebay account, and still waiting for his reply.

Received my replacements today. I kinda dig them on Elsy. Inward facing light is noticeably whiter than my stock '18 lights. Projection is bright and well-defined. I'll keep them until something better comes along. BTW - these are all over Amazon for as little as $10, but good luck getting the right connector. They all appear to have the larger connector for older vehicles.

This is how I solved that issue. Interior and boot. Pins fit directly into the OEM sockets, then stick the panels ''outside'' the lower dash plastic covers.
