Hello all.......I purchased these from Amazon in Oct 2018...they were plug and play with no modification required...I did have a problem with one of the lights projecting inward too much and cutting off the top of the image...being that one was perfect I contacted the company suggesting the lens was offset...they sent me a new set and the problem was resolved.......Here's what I have:

OXILAM Car Door LED Logo for Lexus Projector Ghost Shadow RX/ES/GX/LS/LX/is, Entry Welcome Lamp Logo Light, LED Courtesy Step Lights Ground Lamp Kit Replacement (2 Pack)

Thank you.....
I now have several pairs of these heading to Australia. The ones I bought here did not fit correctly or project correctly.

I have another set of the old fashioned way projectors, if anybody is interested.
How did you install the rear shadow light?

Easily. There is a rubber drain plug in the bottom. I cut it out and dropped my projector light, tapped into my park light.

It has a 15 second delay, then it switches off. It is not all the time, at least the ones I got. This was a long time ago. But people who see it like it.

I bought some the same as the thread starter and they are a rubbish fit , i will have to rework the casing or modify the light so it stays in the door casing hole , there is no springs to hold it in like on the original lights.

Despite assurances from others here, my Oxilam lights also did not fit my door cards as "plug and play". Looks like I will have to adjust the door cards to get a flush fit.

You can now buy a plug and play replacement for the puddle light with the Lexus Emblem now on Doors, unplug old and plug in the new, however the brand you are talking about, i can not comment on. Back then we did not have those so I did it the old way, boring a hole and dropping the projector light.

For the REAR Puddle light, you will have to bore a hole and simply drop the projector light. I tapped into the park light and done, same process I did for the doors.

The rest of my Lexus, it is plug and play.

Go look in Amazon, read reviews. Good luck as I said it is plug and play.

I guess misunderstood your post, I thought you were aware of a particular brand.
