LED Replacement bulbs for 2012 RX 350
Looking for suggestions on a company that has the right LEDS that would fit. Also, does anyone know how to remove the DOME LIGHT COVER which is located in the back seat (Ceiling)? I have tried may ways. The trim seems very tight and I would think just the lens should come off somehow. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

LED Replacement bulbs for 2012 RX 350
I'm looking to convert my incandescent bulbs (OE) for my 2012 RX 350 to LEDS. Any good company that has the right products, (Right sized for each housing, good quality) anyone can recommend?
On a side note, I have tried to remove the DOME LIGHT from the ceiling. I can't seem to remove the LENS nor the Trim, without possibly scratching or breaking. Does anyone have they key to removing the LENS? I think the lens should suffice for me to get to the bulbs.

EMercado, welcome to CL. Many of us have changed out the interior bulbs to LED including the dreaded rear dome. Sorry to tell you, that's the most difficult one but it can be done. Take a look at this thread. There's a few more if you search. I used something very flat and thin to remove the light cover. I think it was a lathe tool. A few members did it with a screwdriver. But use tape or something else to protect the outer part of the light. It scratches easily. The thread I mentioned also conveniently lists bulb information too. VLEDS is pretty popular. I used them myself, no problems. Just get a few extras so you have spares. Good luck removing the cover.

Thanks Kitlz, much appreciated. I'm new to this and look forward to learning a ton. I will endeavor to use a very thin object. I am still hoping to find out if the point of entry to remove the lens is on the back corner (facing the rear windshield) or a front corner facing the front windshield. Going on my second day and have backed out for fear of damaging the trim or lens. Any other bit of insight will be appreciated.
