Thought I would share this picture of the new Spyder LED tail lights I had installed on my 04 RX 330. I wanted my RX to look unique, so many others have copied the Lexus RX style, the once unique OEM Lexus style is now common place. I have had 0 problems with them. They were installed 6 months ago. However, I am lucky because my friend ( master mechanic for Ford) installed them for me. The LEDs required special wiring, not plug and play.
Very nice, can I ask how much these were? I've experimented with cheap aftermarkets for my Camry and they've always had moisture issues or LED failure. Interested in something like this for my RX but it would need to be reliable.
I paid around $450 for the pair. Most vendors were asking $500 plus for them. I looked them up on Alibaba, I wanted to see if all the vendors were getting them from the same source, it appears they are. I've had zero issues, but I garage my RX at home and work. Plus my RX only has 25k miles on it. Condition of tailgate, housing, fasteners is excellent. The quality of these lights are good. I ran thru car wash and washed it many times, no problems. If I ever buy another 2nd gen RX I will buy these Iights again. I love the way they look, really updates the look of the rear.
I agree these are very sharp, looks like I need to look into them myself. I assume yours came from China? I'm hoping they have US distributers for easier warranty.
They do look very good for aftermarket tail lights, usually they are very rice, too bad they are pretty expensive for aftermarket, the 2GS LED ones are only about $190. Not sure if it will be too black on my already black RX.
If I were to purchase from Canada, the total would be around $650.00 Canadian Dollars including Taxes & Duties.
Prefer to save that amount for urgent repairs or maintenance in the future.
Unfortunately upgrading a Lexus RX330 isn't simple & the more complex usually translates to more expensive.

Sorry new to this forum. Late in replying. Vendor was Spyder USA. The lights are expensive because they are actually 4 pieces and a lot of detail.
19 inch 8.5 wide full faced wheels. 35mm offset 245/50/R19 Continential (no speedo distortion) Aftermarket center caps. A little loose, wrapped electrical tape around insert tabs Thought I would share what my new wheels and tires look like on my 2004 RX330. Don't want to give free advertisement to vendor because I am not happy with them. I was charged for custom made wheels, these were not. But, check out Bola wheels in UK. I think all vendors get these wheels from the same source, don't know who. Warning short wheel studs in RX330 created problem. Wheels had to be drilled out to get 6 turns on lugs (using ET lugs, these are the lugs with the extra threads)
Got 04 RX330 at Carmax. I paid 21k in 2015, I got it with a 5 year 100k mile warranty. I know I overpaid, but this car was pristine. The interior is perfect, the under carriage still has all assembly stickers. I don't think it was ever driven in the rain, the car is super clean underneath too. The car was serviced at the Lexus dealer where it was sold. It didn't sit, but was only driven around 1600 miles a year. When I took the RX into to Lexus dealer for servicing they were blown away. They couldn't find a scratch. But, because the car is 12 years old, they recommend a timing belt replacement. I kind of got a new Lexus RX for the price of a corolla. My friend paid $50k for a new one, so I'm ok with paying 21k. Plus, it's an 04, so I'm customizing it. I just put on 19 inch full faced wheels with 245/50/r19 contis on it, plus the Spyder LEDs. Would never do that with a new one.
