mine has a custom one. The thing is tat Lexus cars had solenoids as trunk openers from year 1. If you don't have a remote open, you can just get it as a cheap feature on your alarm since they would not have to install a separate solenoid.

I don't like the short lites of 95+ LS since they look too Mercedesish. I like the real short oned on the corners though.

The funny thing is that I really never meant to do this, I want to do red on the top and bottom and white in the middlebut the bulb housing from my cleartailights was in the middle so i had no choice,but i think it turned out more unique this way.

My original plan

I like the longer tailights and longer clear corners on the 90-94 LS's as well.

I believe we got the small lights because our license plates are longer.

Default light sizes

i really like the larger sized taillights from the 1st gen LS400 as well even tho i have a 95. but i think the 95 model looks a little better from the back. the littler lights give the flared rear a more pronounced look and makes the car more "standout-ish".
