Default 13 RX350 LED change-out, same as 2012 lights?

I am considering this LED upgrade kit in 13RX350... heck, I am surprised the 13 does not have LED's...

http://automationled.3dcartstores.co...450H_p_85.html

Has anyone installed them? Are they a significant improvement in light out put?

How hard to replace the reverse lights? Significant light level output?

Any better alternatives? TYIA

I don't think anyone here has used them for LED bulbs. If you look in the FAQ thread on top of this forum, there's a section on lighting, both interior and exterior. Personally I have V-LEDS and am very happy with them. They offer different colors and brightness. I went with 5K and it looks great especially against the white illuminated sills. Replacing the reverse bulbs is super easy. Just pop the little squares on the bottom of the interior tailgate to access the bulbs. And it definitely makes a difference.

Thanks for the post Anita....I contacted V-LED, and unfortunately they have no clue what lights are in the 2013 RX....
Did anyone change these out yet, are they the same as the 12? (which VLed does have listed/)

Take a look at page 962 in the owners manual for the bulb sizes.
