Does anyone know the bulb number for these so that we can swap them out?

After a while, you won't even notice it.

I like having them. It adds a little class to the vehicle, showing that took even minute details like this into consideration when they built the car. It also helps me see if the girl sitting in the passenger seat has a busted up pedicure or not.

Does that mean you have a foot fetish? LOL


Btw, I like the little night light. It adds ambience to the cars interior at night.

I like the white footwell lights, I think its kinda cool, better than the ES350 i got as a loaner, its yellow. White led is nice, ohh ya its normal and adjustable as everyone else has stated.

I think there's an LPS to turn it off.

The foot well lights get brighter when the door is opened. The center front doom light uses one bulb (when approching he vehicle) untill you open the door, then all three light. I replaced the doom lights with the 5 LED replacements.
