Has anyone done a DIY replacement of a rear turn signal bulb? If so any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for your reply RX400H but they do not apply to the RX.

Your signature lists a 2016 ES350. I thought that you posted in the wrong section - sorry.

Oh crap, sorry for that, I forgot to change car type. I changed cars in the last week to the RX350

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.

Thanks RX400h. I found a youtube video showing the process & got the job done yesterday.
