Replaced the joke of a trunk light with an SMD12 board from Amazon. Easiest install ever and made a huge difference

By far, one of the best and easiest mod that this vehicle deserves! It was one of the very first "upgrades" that I made on the vehicle and it makes a huge difference. Should have been standard bright LEDs like that from the factory imho.

Replacing that pathetic little #194 bulb trunk light with Diode Dynamics' SMD12 LED board was one of the first things I did. The OE trunk light isn't even enough for me to see my golf clubs and golf shoes before sunrise. Somebody at Lexus needs an ***-whooping for manufacturing vehicles with a #194 bulb for a trunk light!

One of the next things I did was add Lexus Shadow Projection Welcome lights to go with my illuminated door sills.

Today I changed the lane change flashes from the default of 3 flashes to 5 flashes. I think 3 flashes is too few and 5 flashes seems to be the sweetspot number.

Installed sequential turn signals. Even when their not on the turn signal is bigger, looks more aggressive that stock, and no chrome

And going back to that trunk light swap, the difference is ridiculous. Last week when I went to the store when it was pitch black outside and I could barely see inside my trunk. Just recently came home from the store around the same time and it looks like there’s a spotlight inside my trunk

Agreed. I also just replaced my LED light strip (
Amazon Amazon
) in the trunk with a newer one. Sometimes it makes me do a double take with all the light coming out of the trunk
