Is it me or is the trunk lights different with the US 2004 models?

The '04-'06 was different than '01-'03. LED taillights.

To each their own, but I prefer black, but the "champagne" is unique in that it's not a factory color so shouldn't be another like it.

Mine were LEDs,too,maybe the camera angle made you dizzy^^. That color I chose from LS460/LS600h called "Satin Cashmere".

@CDW91: Though I liked it at first,then I realized the black color seemed to be hard to keep clean,easily be seen with dirt covered and the main thing was that I didn't like dark colors anyway. And my old color was fully black(Obsidian)
@Vpanin: It cost about 1200$ and I also replaced 2 rear air suspensions for 2000$,pretty cheap for me.

This car prob imported from the U.S to Vietnam, so the back light is prob the same as U.S one. Very clean car. Like the DVD on the headrest.

U.S. spec. 01-03 was not LED taillights.

As for dirt, yeah, black is terrible. You wash it and by time you back it up into your garage, it's dusty again. The "cashmere" will definitely hide dirt so much better.

Our first family minivan was "champagne" color and we hand washed it and always seemed so clean. Then we got a dark burgandy minivan and did the same wash and always missed spots here and there, so we thought we must have missed these on the first minivan too, but because of the color we just did not see it.

Does my trunk look well? Looks like it doesn't fully fit if compares to the original one. Does anyone confirm
