I don't have data on what it takes to replace them - some vehicles are a nightmare. Did find it uses a common bulb (probably several) that look like this..........
Being a Lexus it may use a fiber optic band such that one bulb can do more than one item or to place bulb away from item it lights.
What concerns me is why so many? That can be from a voltage regulator that has not limited voltage which blows bulbs - anywhere easily if it got way up there in volts as low as 18v or so.
One of the guys may know procedures for getting behind which probably is more involved than you'll be happy about but do verify you are running voltages in the 13.5 to 14.8 area with a raised idle now so you aren't do this all again soon.
BTW + IMO, normally dash bulbs last longer than this??
