For removal of interior panels, it is good to have your basic tools such as sockets,. ratchet and screwdriver, BUT also a good plastic pry tool set.
Here are some good starter sets

Hey dude, I just bought a new 2018 IS F-Sport. Soooo glad I randomly came across your chan while on TH-cam (it was in my recommended). Anyways, just wanted to say you’re awesome - you’ve made a lotta tasteful mods that I’m considering doing myself. Thanks for showing us these how-to guides as well as the heads up about getting OEM parts cheaper w/o paying retail ripoff at the dealership.
you're welcome! Glad you are enjoying my videos
Thank you for the video. You saved me $350!! I have a 2018 RC300 F Sport, so my door sills were a little bit different, but the wiring concept was the same. I just finished installing them and they look good. Once again, thank you for the knowledge and the video.
Glad I could help!
I installed it today. Your video help! Thank you. Next I would like to do the rear spoiler but that one scares the crap out of me.
Glad it helped! Yes the spoiler install was pretty scary for me too
Why is the spoiler install is scary? dont u attach it using 3M tape? im confused.
Thanks for the vid!! Just installed and I also thought it would be brighter 🤔
yeah they aren't super bright. Very subtle classy lighting accent
First off, thanks for your video . That’s a big help . I was asking a Lexus dealership to do it for me, they will charge 500 or up for the labor and tools fees. It doesn’t come with parts yet. But I will do it by myself after I watch your video.
I also want to ask you something.
I currently have an is 250 2015. Is that okay if we can upgrade a display screen of is 250 2018 for the is 250 2015. The the new display 2018 seems have more functions and wider than the old version right
Can we also upgrade the red tail light is 250 2018 for is 250 2015 .
Can we do anything to let the mirror sides close and open automatically when we turn lock or unlock the car
One more question, where do get get the little red thing that you call “ tee tap” or something like that . Thanks again !
You cannot upgrade just the display, you need to also change out the headunit as well to support the wider screen resolution. Then in order to fit the New stereo, you need new pieces surrounding it such as HVAC panel and knee rest panels. There is more details discussion about the conversion at link here if you want to read about it, www.clublexus.com/forums/is-3rd-gen-2014-present/892820-converting-7-to-10-display-radio-center-console-upgrade.html
The T-Tap should be included in the kit i believe, I dont remember too clearly but if not you can get it at local small Electronic or Auto Parts store typically.
specONE thank you sir..
Great video but I couldn’t do this.
That looks really good!!
Great videos man!
Dynamic Garage I posted some illuminated door sills on my page, they can be made for any size/color scheme. Check it out if you’re interested.
I have a 2014 LS460 do you think the wiring would be the same haven’t been able to figure out how to wire them up?
Easy if you have a lightning sill before' just connect the cables from the old to the new sill
The third generation Lexus IS never came with illuminated door sills from the factory, they were always added either by owner or dealerships/port
Can you make 2021 and newer updated video. Seems like the process is different
Its in the works! Coming soon
Question: is the wiring the same for the 2015 GS 350? Thoughts ?
Probably similar but not exactly the same
My passenger side sill does not turn off when door actuator is pressed but drivers side does. Can anyone help?
I would double check your connection and test the wire with a voltage meter tool
That “thingy” you called, which is a LED where do you buy that? Because when I ordered my illuminated door sills it didn’t come with it! 😅
Mines included it 🤷
Maybe there were some revisions of these illuminated door sills that have it built in.
I know that other Lexus Models I've never seen the LED "thingy" before.
You just saved me 216 dollars
+Azizur Rahman you are welcome. You sounded like a Geico commercial for a second 🤣
Azizur Rahman I posted some illuminated door sills on my page, they can be made for any size/color scheme. Check it out if you’re interested.
Hello, Im not too good and knowing the gauge wire that the violet wire is. What size is that, and what is the T-twp size
It's a a thin gauge wire, Use red color T-tap
Hy Rodney. Do you ever changed the Steeringwheel Buttons to the 2017 model Buttons ? Or do you know somebody who knows more about that ? Best wishes
Sorry I have not, I wish I had better answer for you
After installing on my 3is, my side marker lights on my headlights stay on for about 15 minutes whenever I open or close the doors or after turning the vehicle off.
Any idea what it could be?
You might want to recheck anything you came nearby, the wires you tapped are only for interior light and should not effect the parking lights in headlights. Make sure everything is plugged in secure and solid
Do you plan on doing on to include the 2018 and 2019Lexus LC 500?
Nice...have you tried putting it on the rears? What do you tap in for that?
+Dave P the rears is just metal plate finish included. no light up Lexus logo. No Lexus logo at all actually. Just snap off original and snap on new one
Yea I was wondering if we could add led to those since I see Aliexpress selling a 4 set...wonder where I can tap in those.
You couldn't add LED to the OEM ones but if you wanted to install the Aliexpress ones you'd want to find the door trigger wire for that particular door and tap into that wire.
He stated in the vid that he had another video showing how to change the color of the LED light in the sills, but I don't see it anywhere? Anyone know what video it is?

@@specONE Thanks for the video! Is the chip what you replace to change the color?
Just curious I purchased the door sills from amazon, but was wondering if the T tap was included with the purchase from the link in your description.
They typically supply different type of wire taps. The one in the video I use instead is something I have in my inventory and I prefer because I work with wiring on daily
Do you think I can pick some those t taps up my guy?
Just goto your local auto parts store, they will sell it in the electronic connector section.
How hard do you have to push the tab in for the connectors I’m having difficulties getting it out
Hi is the light source a different part that I can buy because I bought a used door sills set but it's missing the light source.
Never seen it sold separately. It's part of the kit when I bought mines
Is there a special “t taps “ size I should use ?
Use red color t-taps
@@specONE where did you buy them?
OMg...... It does not have factory plug to just plug in???????
unfortunately there is not any wiring in place already from factory to make this plug and play for the 3rd generation Lexus IS
Oh and btw, do you still have ur original door sills?
Original door sill is back on the car itself and the car is gone now
Awesome!
Thanks
hey does this apply to the 2018 models as well
Yes, should apply to a 2018
@@specONE thanks for the update! one last question. do the lights stay on when you are driving? :)
They don't stay one while driving. They turn off when the door is closed. You can't see them when the door is closed anyways
would it be the same with an 2019 ES 350?
Should be similar wiring hookup.
Can I ask you something more about setup illuminated for the Lexus IS 250. I just got a part from a Lexus dealer. But the thing I got from them way different from you except the illuminated bars. The T-tap is bigger. And they don’t have the connector for the driver harness .
Ken Huynh might be different type of connector tap (look up other views of connector tap and how to use them) but wiring you would tap to in the car should be the same.
specONE my part that I got from a Lexus dealership didn’t have that kind of your T-tap( you have 2 little things ) . My t-Tap just have only one. I just need to put 2 cables actors together then t-Tap them. Everything is works fine now. Thank you again.
Good job! Man! I wanna do that too, my car is is200t@2015, but I am from HongKong, so the steering wheel is on the righ site, can I make it & what else do I need to be careful? Thank you!
should be the same install, wire plugs might be different, couldnt help you there though. maybe the plug is mirrored
Thanks for replying man! Your part number is PT942-53140, right? But the link to eBay, the part number is PT942-53160, and I found that is not the exactly same installation(passenger side, the PT942-53140 t-tap on the the green wire(CTY[-], pin6), but on PT942-53160, changed to the violet wire(CTY[-], pin9). Which part should I buy? Thank you!
I think both part numbers apply still. Sometimes they change part numbers when they change manufacturer of the part so they can tell difference. I cannot comment on the wiring difference of PT942-53160 as I have never seen it in person www.lexuspartsnow.com/installation/MY14%20IS%20Illuminated%20Door%20Sills%20IssG.pdf
specONE Thanks for your kindly reply! So that is mean I need to put t-tap on the violet wire instead of the green one anyway, right?
+Li Ge again I cannot comment on that. I only show what was the case in my car, you can use that as reference. Might not be the same for everyone
did you disconnect the battery?
I dont disconnect battery as I want to be able to test voltage of wires. If you feel more comfortable disconnecting battery, recommend doing so.
will it work on is300 2016?
Yup, it'll work on a 2016 IS300. Same parts
