I read through your thread with the ES300 and it looked like something interesting to do with my ES300. Now you're doing it on the RX.........awesome! I for one would actually like to change the door sills with the illuminated Lexus to be a warm white instead of the yellowy/orangey colour I currently have. It would match the halo's on the dash when you get in and also the needles - but then that's just me. Can't wait to see what you get up to with this mod.

I am so glad you posted this. I was just thinking about doing this to my 2005 RX 330 as in my last car the LED domes made such a HUGE difference in lighting up my car
Thanks also for posting a bulb list as well.
Did you change out the under dash lights? I can take a photo but there is definitely light coming from when my feet are and in the door handles as well. Was this a thing they put into the later 05 model or do you have it as well but just have not done the change out?
Thanks,
James

It's not about saying it's a 100% retrofit. I just like to do it all
But I get your meaning. I think what I am going to do since you already have the experience is do the stuff you did and see if I feel it's enough for me. The orange might work. It's very subtle.
Thanks Mike,

Shoot! Only Canada
Can't seem to order the bulbs. But at least I have some reference. Only thing so far I am having a hard time finding is the Vanity mirrors; 4x 31 MM SMD LED, 'fuse style bulbs'. I found one but it's $14 a set.

Yes those are Canada sellers. I can't seem do be able to buy from them. However I did another search copy and pasted the description and found it in USA. Last night I could not find it. Heh I actually did not buy them cause I was hoping to find them cheaper today ($2.50 a piece). Looks like I did
Thanks for the help.

true that! Did you do the map lights yet?
PS: The two Dome lights front and rear are great. I got smaller ones than you, but they work fine.

wow got mine quick. I still have to install them cause I have not been home to pick up the package.
Update:
Not really as bright as I would have liked. But still work like a charm. The pics are only examples but they are allot dimmer looking to the open eye.

A little better to the real look but still not this bright.
