Hameed, that looks nice ! I was planning this mod last year but never went through with it, but after looking at your pic, I want to do it again.

well for the GS you just need to get any kind of 9006 hid kit and the bulb will fit. you will need to find a good place to stock the hid ballasts though. i ended up having to take off the whole bumper and attached the ballasts to the crush bar. tough work i have to say

trust me guys, 6/21 and i will take tons of pics of my car, including the hid fogs.

shftup - Just like Rominl suggested, I bought the 6000K Philips Ultinon HID kit for the 9006 housing from Jason. You can reach him at discountcycle@ureach.com . He sells out pretty fast, so you have to place an order with him in advance and you could probably get it in two to three weeks.

Hameed -

I agree with you completely. My question to you: What the hell took you so long? LOL

Btw....your 6000K HID fogs are sweet, when you gonna get some 6000K for your low-beams? What bulb you got in the side markers?

You should try them LEDs.

I was too lazy to do this mod before!

I will probably upgrade the low beams hid to 6000K next month. I put in PIAA extreme white bulbs (the glass on the bulb is slightly blue in color) for the corners. What are the LED's u are referring to?

You can try these. Cost about $8.80/pair (includes S/H).

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...threadid=86195

OR

ask BrendanLim about his PIAA LEDs...they go for $20/pair.

Yeah, those look very nice indeed! First though, I have to lose the 4100K HID's in the low beams...........
