Lightbulb LED Reverse Lights

Just installed led reverse lights, did have to trim the little piece where the bulb goes in to make the led sit in there correctly.

Im not to sure, I went by my friends shop and he just put them in. I looked at sylvania, and all Lexus's pretty much use the 921 as a reverse light bulb.. So my guess is its a 921 bulb.

I have LEDs also but haven't put them in. How did you (or your buddy) install them?

It's not the tint, it's the... the ...the camera. : Seriously though, this is one the hardest shots to take when light source is in the frame. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and yours!

Just have to take the clips out under the trunk lid. And it's pretty much the only bulb you can replace there.
