Lexus Ambient Lighting Install
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2022
- Big thanks to Iric Tan over at YZG Electronics for sponsoring this video! 😃 Today I showcase what Lexus should have done from factory. Rather than having a boring interior for a daily driver, it was time to spice things up. Not that Lexus interior is bad, but it is lacking modern revision so I am taking matters in my own hands and adding the ambient lighting kit which is perfect for any vehicle! Thank you everyone for watching! ❤️ Also, I forgot the front door handle light dims when you put it in drive so you can wire it the same as I showed in the rear door so that it won't dim.

I would probably never do this on my IS just because I'm not that good with messing around with parts but this actually looks so sick man. Good job
On my last car I was afraid with messing with things but then the things i wanted to do with the labor costs made me do it myself lol
@@KennyVo thank you so much for recording the process and creating pretty much a tutorial bro, this is my dream car which I hope to own in some years and I will definitely will install something like this
@@91lilfrozone23 hey not a problem! thats pretty much the goal of my time on youtube is just to help others. when i first got my car there was just a few videos and just forums which some were outdated. thanks for stopping by! keep working hard towards the dream 👍🏼😃
@@KennyVo good morning does it have a setting where the lights change by itself, like a rainbow effect
@@KennyVo good morning what color wire did you connect to for the front and for the back
Very nice men, you make look so easy! Definitely it’s gonna be my next mod 👍🏾
Glad to hear this! For sure, it is doable and really adds life to the the vehicle's interior. All the passengers love it lol
Great job the ambient lighting looks fantastic 👍👍
Much appreciated!!!!
you never fail to impress with these videos bb
😫 stop you're making me blusshhhhh
This is really damn cool! As always, great video.
i love it! thanks a lot Mr.Grey3IS
UA-camrs like you make me enjoy being apart of the Lexus community
Thank you Victor! Super humble comment and I really appreciate that. The intention of my channel is to spread my knowledge to those who need it, because at one point I was the one seeking for help.
Okay okay okay 🤙🏽Super Bad Ass Video Much Props I got a RC 350 & this looks like a winner ...Good clean work ✊🏽💯💯 The weed has me thinking 🤔 ill forget some wires but will try soon Thanks 😊
appreciate the kind words! haha you got this 😏😏
Man they look great, i know you didn’t ask me but on the back door where you wrapped the wires keep in mind copper and aluminum will react since is two different metal. But they look sick man.
Thanks Luis! That's correct, I ordered some smaller connectors to properly join them. That information is helpful, thanks for that 👍
@@KennyVo aaàaaà
I loved the video so nice 👌 , but I need the map of wires and its exits .. and should I buy the fuse and ground connector ?
🔥 🔥 looks amazing bro 🤙🏽
Appreciate it!! Thanks!
Hi Kenny! Hats off to your job there - it is indeed quite some work!
Question - Say I have in-built door handle and storage lightings but not the led strip on the door panels. Can I install the LED in-sync with what I have in place on my door panels?
You just earned yourself a subscriber. Great video👍🏽
thanks very much!
Thx a lot for ur video congrats !
Wow, amazing!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love the in depth details
Much appreciated!!
Awesome 👏🏼
😄thank you
Great through video, awesome turnout. I have a question though, after you set up the colors you want, what happens after the car is turned off and on does the lights stays with the set color before or they go back to white as preset when you first turned on ?
Thanks! The colors stay to the last setting you left it on! 👍
Connectors with flux inside is same fast way but it's solid and long lasting 👋💪 other than that great job dude 🤜
thanks for the feedback. i will look into this!
First of great video, someone who actually explains how to tap into the door. Most videos skip these sort of things, and just show them adding the led strips to the door without explaining how it is being powered on. Your video has been very helpful.
At : 23:18 what is that tool name you used to cut the wire and expose the copper part?
My car has no door lights, but does have window switch. I was a bit confused how you knew which wire was the positive/ground?
Much appreciated Steven! I was looking for videos on this too and was running into the same issue where people were just showing off the lighting itself or just having it plugged into the 12v. Glad I could help.
The tool I used to cut the wire was an xacto knife, you can use any knife or razer blade. Or even a actual wire splitter but I just used what was handy lol.
I was reading up forums on which wires had power since people were doing the mirror light mods, the window switch on this car is illuminated so there was a power source for it and It was a lot of trial and error. You can use a volt meter to see which wire would be live when the car is on and off when the car is off also.
Great vid! Wanna ask, do you know how to install those pop-up hood defeat thing? It costs so much for dealer to reset whenever the hood pops up due to any minor contact of the bumper. Installing that pop-up hood defeat would be so useful for all. Thanks..
Looks great! Curious where you attached the rear foot well lights? Did you just stuck it to the fabric under the seat?
Thanks! Yes that’s exactly what I did for the rears
Love this mod
it is such a nice add on! 😍
Great install video, where did you get that shifter?
Thanks Jesse! I got the shift knob off etsy.

Nice work sir
thanks! really appreciate that 😁
Hello, awesome video! I just mounted this on my car, but I don’t have the same app like You. My app doesn’t allow for the LEDs to change color individually. Which app are you using? :)
Hey thanks, its "I-AT Lamp"
Hey boss after watching your video I decided to give it a try, I made the lights work but for some reason the first half of the ambient is fitting in but the other half doesn’t fit at all I tried pushing it as much as I can but it doesn’t wanna go in is there an easy way to do it?
Hey man so I bought this product twice now since the first one had an issue, the second one they said I needed to connect the orange led cable to my ACC box but in your video I don’t see what you connected it to. I was hoping you could help. Thank you in advance
Hello great job I love your video where can i buy this light kit for my 2015 Lexus 350 rx
Thanks! I have it linked in the description. It is a universal kit so it fits any car
Can you do a total dark or night shot
What a great video. You conquered something that seems impossible, but you did it. Can this be done with a 2016 RX350F Sport? I could really use it very much. Thanks. 😊
Thanks a bunch Michael! It was a tedious job but well worth it and completely modernizes the interior of our vehicles. yes you can add this to the RX350, the kit is universal so its meant for any car. The install and wiring is practically the same for Lexus.
Thank for your kind reply. Can I fly you to Las Vegas to do mine? What one man can do, another can do as they say. I found a short video that someone has done it on the Lexus RX 350. Here are the two links. Thanks again:
ua-cam.com/users/shortsftkdFiYWG7k?feature=share
ua-cam.com/users/shortsm9x7m3BsA64?feature=share
Hi again. Just wondering if you had a chance to look at the two links.
Hi again Kenny. Just checking. I was hoping to hear from you by now my man. Please get back to me. Thanks.
@@michaelraytyler9678 Hey Michael, what 2 links are you talking about?
I was in my car the other night and was thinking how I wish there was some ambient light in here. Doesn’t have to even be this much. Just so the car isn’t pitch black outside of the gauge/center stack/infotainment.
Right! Yeah all of the strips and lights are optional, if you only want strips you can do that and just not plug in the other ones.
Hi! I just bought a 2019 A220. I thought it had ambient lighting but it doesn’t😞 do you think it’s a good idea to have some one install a kit? Or do I take the risk of messing something up on my car? If not is the a lighting kit that you recommend for the A220? Thanks in advance 😊
Hey, honestly it would depend on pricing for myself to have someone install it vs the cost of the product. The product I have is universal to any car, you would have to find power sources for the doors and dash though. There is a possibility others have done it on your car on forums or even youtube to help guide you. If you do go through a shop just ask if they have previous work done and research the kit they use so the lights have different modes, colors, and even brightness throughout the strip.
You should show it how it looks at night
Good video, thank you!!!!!!. I was looking for this kit (wireless) for some time, looks that this one is perfect for me but I have a few questions, please:
1- This are LED lights, no fiber optic?
2- Can you send me a direct link to buy this?? When I click in your link I don't see the option to buy, I have to send a quotation request and then a lot of shops send me quotations that is not what I want.
3- Can I buy an extra strip for my dash, I have an ES350 and is look that I will need some extra.
Thank you !! I really appreciate your work.
Hey thanks and no problem! Yes they are led and not fiber optic, the light output is even throughout. Let me follow up on the link sorry it should’ve been a buying link I will add a comment after this when I follow up with the seller. The dash one is pretty long but these come as a kit so that would have to be up to the seller if they can add an extra dash strip.
Hey bro, hope you’re doing well, I got a quick question for you, I installed my ambient lights kit because of you 😁 but mine have an extra wire that says connect to headlights signal 🫤 and it don’t turn on, hopefully you could help
Hey man, I'm well hope you are too! Hmm mine didn't have that headlight wire but im guessing that is one that turns on when the lights are on... did you have the fuse wire? That is the one that should have it powered on.
Getting ready todo these next weekend how have the lights held up over time any issues?
Nice! Holding up very well still like the first day I installed them. Absolutely zero issues!
does this cause any risk considering were messing with the electricity and battery of the car?
Nice job, I tried the link for the light kit and it doesn’t work. Do you have another link or a search term for this kit? Thanks
Thanks Michael! The link works on my end, you just have to click on contact seller on the right side since they usually do bulk orders. They will let you order 1 kit though.

Hi, I just pick the 23" IS350 and want to install this ambient light, and just wondering how this light hold up so far? Any flickering? Thanks
Still working like day 1, no flickering
I just recently purchased a new Lexus and was going to do this but it looks complicated as hell.
Do you recommend another person to do this for me?
Depends on the price. Usually I go off of labor to product cost, I wouldn’t pay more in labor than the part but it is tedious so that might be the case.
3:10 your shoe is so crazy bro
We’re you ever able to follow up on the link? I would love to purchase these due to how thin this look. Let me know!
I did! It is super thin and looks OEM clean. You just have to contact the seller on the link and she can sell you the single kit since that website is mainly used for bulk ordering.

What about the floor lights?
🔥🔥🔥🔥did you get the gear stick from Amazon as well?
I got it made from someone on Etsy
Okay thanks
Where’d you get that dashboard screen?
Fucking amazing job man. I'm gonna make a short video how to do the doors for a Lexus RX350 2016. I'll definitely reference you when I'm done.
Thanks man! That would be sick
So I finished getting around to it but I forgot to do the recording. Lol I followed your guide and it turned out awesome despite the difference. If I get commissioned to install on RX350s, I'll definitely be recording.
If you wanna see how it turned out, I uploaded a short video clip! ua-cam.com/video/3h8pCvkYvmg/v-deo.htmlsi=OSkbWFwMD86tbAru
Thanks again man.
where did you get the carbon fiber trim by the window switches
It is actually vinyl wrap that I did myself when i first got the car lol
Have you changed the diff fluid or transmission fluid yet?
have yet to do those but it is on the list next.
What percent tint you have on your windows?
I’ve seen videos that look like this kit but they can do trailing (a light mode that could for example send a red light from one side of the strip to the others or fade from left to right and stuff like that) you didn’t show that in the video but can this kit do that? Or do you need to order a different one? I don’t wanna order the wrong one.
This kit doesn’t do it :( it’s just static on. No chasing RGB with this kit
Thanks for the reply!
Bro I did the same as yours for front door lights and it was working fine for few hours but then automatically went off. All other lights working except both front doors. Door handle light flickers s little bit. Can you help a little with this problem if you know anything. Much appreciated.
I would double check all the wires you tapped into and make sure they’re secure. Also make sure the exposed positive and grounds are not touching each other.
🔥🔥🔥
thanks!
Hey man sorry to bother you. I’m just trying to get this setup right. So on the doors was there a thing additional that you had to do? I got all the same connections but the light won’t light up on the front passenger side.
I’ve watched your video for reference but still I have no luck
no problem man, nothing additional had to be done, just make sure your connections are solid, clicked in to the module and that your wire taps are making good contact with eachother. Usually loose wire/connection would be the issue. If that’s still the case i would switch your positive and negative wires on the taps to see if it was wired wrong by the manufacturer of the lights.
Hello! Do you have any idea why it doesn't give me enough current in any of the sockets at the doors? The factory LED in the handle is lost when I connect it, I only have 2 or 3 V, I tried all the sockets on the window, on the speaker, it only works on the light bulb that lights up under the door, that one has 12v continuously when you open the door. Mercanti
Thats the first time I am hearing about this...everyone thats done it has done it this way and has been successful. Your window switch and window switch light function before you tap to it?
Yo I have a question, do you know why my strips won’t go in all the way for the door panel?
its a tight space you really have to force it in there. If youre really struggling to get it flush you can remove the screws on the back panel that hold the pieces together and it will create a lot of space to work with.
Hey bro. Where do you live? I need you to install the interior lights for my Es300h.
Houston Texas, you can message me on instagram @texus3is
I had done something similar to my 2016 GSF but i sold it and got a redeye and also just got a 2022 es350 f sport. Would this kit fit on my es?
I have a 2012 es 350 I was wondering the same thing on. Lmk if you find out. Thx!
Hey sheesh thats a good looking driveway haha. Yes this will fit the ES! Install is very similar
Yes its universal, the ES doors are larger but I had to use less of the strips so it will be perfect for the ES!
@@KennyVo oh perfect. And what would you do for the dash, ik yours is a little different than mine
@@KennyVo oh perfect. And what would you do for the dash, ik yours is a little different than mine
Just for someone who plans to do.dont use cable clip like that...there is better ways doing and it avoids oxidation ✅
How do you control the backdoor lights? I didn’t see you plug it in in one of those small black boxes…
Or did you mean that with light source?
Its plugged into its own black box also. The doors are synced with the front ones so they are the same color
@@KennyVo Thanks. So if I’m correct all the doors have their own little black box for the door lights and handle lights. All the footwell lights goes to one plug because the extension cable. The main box only had two light source cables. So if the footwell lights take one of them I only have one left for my main dashboard led whilst I have two of them🥲 What can I do for that. Do you think its possible for me to connect the two dashboard led strips with the t-clamps you have used and use one plug for those two strips?
@@isinanymous3828 that is correct, yes you can tap them into eachother matching the colors! It would work
Don't they actually provide tht as a feature by company?
Quiero hacerlo en mi carro 2017 200t
Do you feel like this can be done on a 2010 Lexus is 250?
yes, i think any car. the kit is universal! the strip is clean too, not bulky and obvious like other options on the market.
Can the length of the strip be cut anywhere?
yes it can anywhere between the LEDs
6:55 on this time I see you have a a orange table connected. Is that to the ground or were to sorry?
It is red, that is to the fuse. ground is black and grounded to a bolt on the metal surface
Did you get one that’s was orange that said led cause that’s how mine came like. I contacted the seller. And they said it goes to the ACC box but in your video I see you have the red one and then an orange like it went to the side and I see that you have the black grounded. By chance, is there a way I can reach out to you via Instagram to show you what I’m talking about?
@@moisesvazquez7250 i have another line down there for my dash cam, the color doesn’t matter you can use the orange to the fuse box
Where did you get the lighting from
link in description
Will this work for the Lexus gs 350
Yes it will!
Did u have any problems out of the seller selling these on that app I think it’s kind of strange to order from
Did not, seller is from overseas where this is distributed from and does not have a store front in the states or Amazon so they use that site, I got my carplay unit from the same seller with the same site.
Can this be installed in all cars
yes it can
What’s the app called
I-AT Lamp, it has a white background with a rainbow circle on it
Intro song??
What state are you inn ?
Texas
i live close to you lets get together so we can work on IS's bro!
sheeshhh, shoot me a dm we can link 👍🏼
Is that suitable 2022 es250?
Yes it is universal to any vehicle
これ欲しいです。入手方法おしえてください。
リンクは説明にあります
So everytime you turn it on that Siri talks ?
I have the Uniden R7 radar and it does the band checks when i start lol
Alibaba link says min order 100
Am I the only one that has a problem when rolling up or down the windows the lights cut out and then come back on when it’s finished
I havent had this problem. Are all your wires secured pretty well?
U got info about gs 350 2016 ?
same fuse tap, what info you need
em
anh oi
so you decided to install the LGBT light on your Lexus?
🚩🏃🚶🚶🚶🏃🚶🏃🚶🚴🚴
Help bruh. So you have 4 dor modules wired to the OEM wires which have power all the time, right? And then only the master controller wired so it will be powered only when ingition is on, am i right?
All the wires I wired to have power when the ignition is on, the door lights and dash shut off when the car is off and turns on when car is on
@@KennyVo Thanks. I have 2IS and just finished wiring today, found wires at windows controller but they have the power all the time :/
Hello, how do you find which one to has power towire with the window controller?
