We have exactly what you're looking for. For a 4 way trailer connector you can use the Curt # C55245 or if you need both a 4 way and 7 way, you can use the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 7-Way and 4-Flat Connectors # HM11143910. Both of these harnesses will plug into the vehicle's existing towing package harness and provide you with the plugs you need to power your trailer's lights.
If you'll be towing a trailer with brakes when using the 7 way plug, you'll also need a brake controller. For that I recommend using the Curt Echo # C51180 because the 2011 Lexus LX 570 does not have an adapter to easily install a brake controller in the cab of the truck. This is a "plug and play" controller that plugs into the 7 way connector and is controlled by a smart phone (iOS 8.0 or newer/Android 4.4 or newer). The Echo provides proportional braking for your trailer, which means that the amount of pressure your brakes are applied in the tow vehicle are also applied on the trailer brakes- so it's the most responsive type of controller.
I've linked some video reviews of these parts that I recommend having a look at, as well, to see how they work and are installed.
