Hey guys, I'm having trouble removing the dome and footwell lights. I'm able to remove the cover (except the back passenger cover, can't seem to find a way to remove it) but as far as removing the lights, I can't tell if I should push or pull it.
I've asked the Lexus dealer to show me but they will not due to safety issues.
Sh1nra, can you post pictures of the areas in question? I don't think there are any drastic changes from '10-'12 but I'd like to see it before making any suggestions.
Thanks for the pics. I think you have them reversed. To remove the bulbs, pull them straight out. Do not twist them, especially the front dome or else the housing will come loose. You can see the black tabs that hold it in place. When you say rear passenger lights I assume you mean the ones on the door. I used my trusty plastic card (like what you get from stores) and slid it around the edges to release the tabs. It was easy and didn't scratch anything. For the rear dome I went with a thin metal tool to slide around the cover. Others used a small screwdriver. Good luck.

My bad! I didn't notice until you pointed it out. I see. Corrected it.
Will try to pull it when I get the chance.
Yea the rear dome lights. I can't find anything thin enough to slip into the crack.
