Does anyone have this option or have you ever seen it in a NX?

Im wondering if all of the NX's are wired for these and the install would be a simple plug and play.

Granted I would not pay this price for these but if they ever popped up for about 1/4 of what this eBay seller wants I might go for it.

that ebay seller is always way overprice for all NX parts

I agree I would never pay this price. Hopefully parts will become more readily available and not astronomically priced and I would try this out.

Install probably isn't plug and play, but you would simply t tap one of the following:

T tap a cig lighter for the lights to be on all the time or

T tap another ambient light in the car that comes in with your headlights. It's very easy, I did that with my camaro. I t tapped it to my backlighting for my 4 gauge pack. So now it comes on when my headlights are on.

Found them on NigelJDM available as "pre-order". These look quite nice actually. Wonder when these will actually be available..

I also got a 5% CL discount! I hope they will nicely compliment my illuminated door sills.

Seems like a lot of wiring for a simple LED installation. Looks like what I would expect for a full-on HID retrofit conversion.

$265? Holy

The ones I posted above were $50, and I was given them for free because I'm friends with the business owner.

Man the Lexus name carries one hell of a markup.

Did yours have all that wiring? Looks like it has a ballast under the foam wrap...

As a side note, it DOES look relatively plug and play, although, there seems to be a wire splice attached to a wire in the bundle.

Mine looked very similar to that. Mine had 2 wires coming off each plate. I drilled through my cup holder and fed the wires underneath. At that point, I plugged each of them into a supplied module, and then took the wires off the module and used t-taps to connect them into the backlight for the gauges on my 4 pack. That way, they weren't always on, but were only on when my headlights were.

Took me more time to take my car apart than it took to install them. Nice thing too is the module has a switch on it, so if one was to go out, I can just pull the side of my center console and shut them off.

Please document and take photos of the installation process for us!

I decided to have the dealer install them. It took about 3 hours. They turn on and off with the headlights. They look pretty sweet!!!!!

care for telling us how much was the labor? I might be interested have my local dealer install as well. Thanks
