I had them added at the dealer and like them. They are a little pricy though due to the labor.

Then all the add-ons are listed, your saying that nowhere does a price show for illuminated door sills. These are separate from illuminated cargo sills obviously.

thks for showing the options, but no those are puddle lamps that shine towards the ground when opening door. I'm talking abt illuminated door sills, which are the plates that show " Lexus " (light up) on the metal trim as you enter the vehicle. Right on the side of driver/passenger seats. Trying see if you have those as part of Luxury pkg.

The puddle lamps are ok but agree just a gimmick. But the illuminated door sills add a nice touch n my wife wants them.

Ah! Sorry about the misunderstanding. I guess I don’t have illuminated door sills. 🤷🏻‍♂️

No problem. But you have the Luxury trim correct!

I can confirm lighted door sills are NOT standard on the luxury package. I had to pay for them.

Finally got around to installing these - they look fantastic! Such a great upgrade.

Love ours in the RX and NX. Installed in three friends Lexus's and they all love them. Cheap and easy to install even for me.

Is your vehicle an NX or RX ? My image on the 2023 RX does not show the Lexus logo. Does anyone on the forum that has the new RX have both the Lexus name and the logo or just the Lexus name?

The OEM puddle lights are name only, no logo. Aftermarket ones have both. They are a simple install as well.

The wife’s birthday is coming up and she made an off hand comment that she wished the sill plate’s Lexus logo on her luxury trim would light. Up. So ordered Lexus part number PT944-48231 online today. $280 shipped to the house, beats the $450 charge as a port installed option. Install should be easy.

Default OEM RX Door Courtesy Projector Lamp (set of 2) in US?

Does anyone know if OEM Door Courtesy Projection Lamp is available in the US for the 2023 RX350h?

Photo of OEM RX Door Courtesy Projection Lamp
I was only able to locate an OEM version on Lexus Boutique in Japan (online) for $399 for set of 2. This is a direct replacement of the OEM courtesy lamp in the doors, such that “LEXUS” projects on the ground upon opening the door. I was able to find a plug and play generic version for $45, however am hesitant as I understand using a non-OEM could potentially cause a short in the electrical system of the vehicle.

The OEM puddle lights are part number PT944-78220. You can find them online. If you read through this thread there are other options as well.
