How do you replace tail lamp on 2003 Lexus LS 430?
Light bulb changed. I removed a Philips head screw under a plastic cover on the lower edge of the light housing. Slid the light assembly off the hook at the top and accessed the socket replaced the bulb. Slid the light assembly back on the hook, replaced the scew and snapped on the plastic cap covering the screw. Never did find two screws under the carpet in the trunk. Thanks, but we figured it out.
I never found the Phillips screw. SOOO Open the Trunk at the back there are 2 little doors held closed with velcro. Open these doors. When you have figured out what is burned out, remember "Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosey". Rotate the socket mechanism left and gently pull the light and sockett out and remove the bulb. I suggest that if you have one out you should replace both right and left sides bulbs. Good Luck!

How do you remove back seat in a 2003 Lexus LS430?
pleasE advise. how do you remove the back seat of the Ls 430 2003? Also what TOOLS ARE REQUIRED?
((LS = Luxury Sport) Usually determines the type of model of car.Such as the "GT" in Ford Mustang GT - it's a sportier version of the Mustang, or the "SS" in Chevy Camaro SS - its the super sport version of the Camaro, or "LT" in Ford Windstar LT - it's the Luxury Touring version of the Windstar. This denimonation in the model name is used to describe the type of extra packages included in the vehicle rather than advertising it as the "stripped down" model. The Lincols LS, however uses the Denomination as the name of their vehicle also in sort of "no bull" approach to selling their car. In other words, the name says it all.

How do you repair the instrument panel on a 1993 Lexus LS 400?
I have attempted to fix my 94 Lexus LS400 instrument dashlightsa couple of times to no avail.Finally,I had it repaired at LexusTech.com in September 04, I am very happy with their work .
A common problem on these cars. So far mine has not had a problem. There is a very detailed description of how to fix this on the lexusownersclub.com LS400 forum.vbdenny
I have a 1993 LS400 that has had several different issues with the instrument panel. 1)The needle on the speedometer went out ~110,000mi - I eventually had the dealer replace it for big $$$. 2) Beginning ~120,000mi the entire instrument panel would flicker in cold weather until the car was fully warmed up - I found an electrician expert who diagnosed this problem on his own LS400 & offers repairs via eBay at about $600 LESS than the dealer wanted. 3)The time / temp LCD became unreadable "smudged" especially in cold weather. I found replacement LCD on eBay from several different vendors & installed myself. Car is currently at 140,000mi and instrument panel is fine!
