Default LED interior bulb kit?

Looking for interior LED bulb kit (and sideview puddle light LED) for my 2010 LS.

I looked at previous threads but the links are mostly dead.

Any suggestions?

I don't know about kits but I always had great luck from V-Leds.

You don't need any specific kit. These are all standard size bulbs. I don't remember what are they, but the last time I replaced them I just pulled them out and bought the same size LED's from the local auto parts store.

These are what I used for mine, you will need a few of each type and some need specific polarity. You need a "very" thin small flat screwdriver or your gonna scratch the crap out of the covers.

Did you notice a difference? If so, small, medium, large, etc. In other words, was it worth doing? It seems like an easy, fun, and inexpensive little project.

I love my 460 but with a black interior, however, the lighting is a bit underwhelming.

It's a huge difference, I would recommend leaving the covers all off until you get the level of light you want. Every light is on in this picture and you can see the rear seat colour is almost gone because the 2 vanity lights there have 3 bulbs each. I bought all 6k bulbs so a person could go with a lower output like 4300 or 5000, there are about 12 bulbs that you can change.

Some people don't like to drive at night so they would have no use for them, I never use them for myself but the oem bulbs are so yellow it's sickening.

I replaced the overhead lamp, also removed the filter that Lexus puts in. I was very happy with that one change. Much brighter. To each his own.

They don't carry LED here.

That's why I was hoping for some links.
