Default Install clear bumper lights

Hi boys, do you think you can help one of your ES girls out? I just bought the clear bumper lights for my ES and I want to put them on by myself. Not sure how to do it though, can someone help me with a dIY write up? Many thanks in advance

All you need to do is turn the clip in the wheel well thats attached to the bumper counter clockwise and pull out the pin, Then pull the fender liner back. This will allow you to get to the back of the lens. You will then need a 10mm(IIRC) socket to unscrew the one nut that holds the light in. Once removed, just pop out the light and install new one in same order.

I found them on ebay. I was shopping for other accessories for my car and just happen to find them. I bought them right away, they were about 40bucks.

Hi Aceshigh, welcome to CL. go to the site and type in "lexus crystal clear bumper lights" and it should show up. It's listed as 2002-06 ES300/ES330. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do this or post the link. But trust me, I've been looking for them for a long time.
