Does the seller sell them on eBay or Amazon or just directly from their website?
Ah gotcha.

From looking around it looks like they used to sell them on Amazon but don't anymore. Looks like they just sell them from their website.

I got a set off of Ebay " Ghost Shadow lights" It's really hit or miss with a lot of cheap ones out there. No problems with the ones I bought over a year ago. $20 for 4, you can't go wrong, I only have them for the front. Putting them in the rear is over doing it for me. I have non logo led lights in the rear. The 2nd set is a spare for now

Those look pretty similar, although the "LEXUS" script is not quite right

Really? I'm really trying hard to see the difference. If there were actual oem Lexus logo lights available then that would be the actual bench mark.

They look the same to me also but who cares. If members can get them cheaper I'm all for it. I was just wondering how long any of them will last and can the bulb be changed?

It doesn't appear that you can open it up and change the bulb. Leds are suppose to last longer than regular bulbs so I expect them to last thru my ownership of my LS460

If you look at the "LEXUS" script, the middle part of the E ends in a point, the bottom part of the X is rounded off in a way that isn't the same as the regular Lexus script, and the projection isn't as crisp. The picture of mine you posted is on knobby asphalt vs a flat surface like the picture of yours. If you look at the picture of mine in my garage you should be able to see the difference.

Getting something for cheaper is great, as long as its the same thing. These are laser etched with the name of their company on the back, etc. I really don't think you're going to get these exact units somewhere else cheaper.

Not looking to argue, if people want to buy the cheap ones go for it, just sharing that I bought the cheap ones and these more expensive ones and these are a lot better. Just looking at the housings, etc the improvement in quality is really clear. If the ones I bought for $15 for 2 were crappy, I can't imagine ones for $15 for 4 are going to be much better.

agreed, after a proper look I see what you mean about the script

Just a FYI, I ordered these script lights a week ago and just received a refund without explanation from the company. I guess they are out of stock, cease and desists order, or maybe my money is not green enough. Don't know, just figured I would alert the group.

Are you referring to TE006? Yes. It’s Len can be adjusted 80 degree


We can send you PayPal invoice if that works for you (you can pay with credit card)"

I ordered a set on November 19th paid via paypal. They were in the mailbox yesterday.

Now I have to figure out how to remove the panel to install them. Looks like a Sunday project.

It take 1 minute to install. Use a plastic trim pry tool and pop the light out
