Default Red Door Pocket Lamp Lenses

These LS400 door pocket lamp assemblies feature red plastic lenses.
Anyone encounter these before?
Thanks





Toyota part number?

It appears Toyota offered red safety lenses or was required to do so in certain jurisdictions.

i believe these were available outside of the US domestic market. japan or europe perhaps. this was common with other makes and models too as it could be regulation for those countries, similar to rear fog lights which we didn't get in the US either.

I took a look at some imported Celsiors and did not see this red lens on them. However, I recall seeing them on European LS 400s.

One can be seen here, in this review at 1:57:

And on this car that was exported to Russia at 8:18:

And here on a second gen at 13:10:
