Hi there,
I am a new member here and recently purchased a certified '13 RX 350. Love it! BTW, do anyone have info (LED bulb info and ease of installation) on how to swap the trunk halogens with LED? Thanks!

Ordering these bulbs today and when received will do my wife's 2015 RX. There are two on each side and one on the hatch. Easy to remove cover with a thin putty knife. Use very little force. Once out easier to disconnect the harness than remove the silver metal housing and replace. I did my ES's trunk and what a difference in brightness.

The plastic housing has two parts, maybe you haven't separated them first? They are held together by tiny plastic tabs. After they are separated, you push on one of the two the metal bulb holders and the bulb comes off.

How many ___________ does it take to change a light bulb?
Sorry. I couldn't resist.

I did what greeknasty said and used something with grip to remove the bulb. No twisting. it's been a few years since I did mine. But I remember removing the panel on the passenger side for easier access. Not on the driver side though. That took a little longer. It's possible. Don't give up.
