cduluk. Thats ridiculous I'm 19 too I have a 04 RX there so much stuff I want to do to it, I wish I was that hands on. I tried changing the dome light to LED like yours and I ended up scuffing the hole console tried to pry out the plastic cover. In the end my girl friend showed me how theirs two slits on the side. I feel like such an idiot. How do you install the LED back up light? And what did you use for the LED dome lights; I bought these today http://nigel-jdmparts.com/hid.html will they work?
Thanks

thanks for the compliments guys

triplecore, i had to make my own dome lights with several 5mm white LED's- there wasn't enough room for the thing you bought, and the single LED bulbs on ebay etc weren't bright enough, and weren't directioned correctly.

As for the backup bulbs, i found out what size bulb it took and bought a pair of white LED bulbs in that size from ebay. Get the GOOD ones, like $40 for the pair.

Really; I emailed the buy and he said they would fit I hope he does returns. Do you know of any websites or where I can buy them premade and would fit? Or could I pay to make me a set of front and back dome light LEDs that would work on a 04? please

It might work for you with the rx330, all i know is that those wouldn't fit in my rx300... When it comes, just see what you can do with it.
