Thanks for your reply RX400H but they do not apply to the RX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX400h Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Your signature lists a 2016 ES350. I thought that you posted in the wrong section - sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh crap, sorry for that, I forgot to change car type. I changed cars in the last week to the RX350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution RX400h Posted September 15, 2023 Solution Share Posted September 15, 2023 It looks like the method used on RX models in general includes these steps: Turn off your vehicle and disconnect the battery. Doing this will help prevent electrical mishaps or electrocution. This should not be necessary if replacing the bulb, only. Open the trunk. This will allow you to access the trim paneling on your vehicle. Remove trim lining. Using the small flat head screwdriver, pop out the plastic rivets holding your vehicle’s trim liners in place. Remove tail light from the assembly. You can do this by pinching the connector and pulling out the bulbs of each tail light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a youtube video showing the process & got the job done yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
