Bulb? '08 ?? Don't worry about it! You're under warranty, unless youve managed to rack up some serious mileage. So when you take it in, you can ask how it's done, in case there's a next time.

wwest Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 another one... Personally I would buy the DIMMEST bulbs available.... License plate illumination is required by law but how much...?? The only person that might be interested in reading my license plate at night is someone I don't wish to know anyway... On my '01 RX300 I have the parking/street/tail light circuit disconnected for the two inside hatch mounted lights to give a more pronounced indication that I have just applied the brakes.

RX400h Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I have a switch that cuts off the plate lights - comes in handy if roadrage is encountered....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
