Lexusfreak Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I am thinking of changing my licence plate & driving light bulbs to LED's...both take the '194' bulbs (I want to change the trunk light too, but I don't think it takes this bulb?) which are the stock 5W replacements. Has anyone done this on their ES 330 & how difficult are they to change? Any detailed instructions would be appreciated...I just don't want to break anything via trial & error. Thanks.
DBrucher Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I just changed my license plate lights in my ES300 and it was pretty easy. Used a super thin flathead to pop the little black clips out downward and then kind of roll the plastic housing to the side. I almost broke the second one because instead of the two being mirror images of each other (left and right), both "Face" left. Just to be on the safe side, I replaced pop-out black clips with brand new ones. The LEDs look really good; REALLY bright. I'm very happy with my 11 dollar Ebay purchase. :D

SW03ES Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Do the LEDs shine down on the license plate properly?
DBrucher Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Do the LEDs shine down on the license plate properly? Definitely 2 flat-top A-shaped beams, but they're bright enough to illuminate the whole thing.
