Default Upgrade the interior dome lights

Hi everyone.
I have Lexus RX450HL 2019. I plan to upgrade to LED interior lights.
I need some guidelines on how to replace the front and rear dome lights.
Do I need to remove the entire dome console then access the bulbs or only I need to remove the plastic light cover (touch light model)

I really did my best to search through posts but I still did not find the key.
I would appreciate any kind of support.

Many thanks,

Hi, Mine are led as well. It was only to change the colour. For the trunk cargo bulb lights, they are led as well.
If you have the same model. See photos for your reference.

I have the same question of how to replace dome light too. I couldn't remove the front cover like easy ones the in the trunk so I removed the whole console down but still can't get to the bulbs. Please share if you know how to.

I think they're LED at least mine are. You may have to pry the cover open or maybe because they are LED they'll outlast the car

Hi, I've already tried to change the interior dome lights in my RX450hL 2019, because their brightness is very-very low. You can remove the dome light panels easily (not the cover but the whole lamps in one block; they are fitted without screws), but unfortunately, all the original LEDs inside them are sealed directly on a printed circuit, built together with the whole lamp panel, so these LEDs are unfortunately not replaceable. They are very small LEDs, 3pcs in one lamp, therefore their brightness is terrible low. You cannot upgrade them. I'm very disappointed, I must bow to the dark inside the car. :-( All of other interior LEDs and bulbs are replacable (I've replaced them): at bottom of doors, and rear door too, but the dome lights are not. :-(
