Just wanted to know if anyone on board has the Phillips HID upgrade. I have a GS 400 with non HID system and im considering this upgrade. Any info on this kit would be appreciated.

Yes, I have that kit in my car, I like it a lot. The only problem is that ever since I've had it installed into my car people have been flashing their lights at me! Last week I got pulled over and ticketed........ I'm not sure if I have to have my beams adjusted to compensate for the brightness of the bulbs. Anybody have any suggestions?

Did you put the kit in yourself? If so was it easy to put in?

if you guys don't mind, i'd like to post about my thoughts about Philips HID. As bright as it may seems, to me it is a bit yellowish instead of factory pure WHITE. IMO, if u are to get an HID kit, you would want pure white light, or we can just get PIAA super white (brightly yellowish).
So be careful of the Philips kit, it is a bit yellowish, there are some HID there that may charges a bit more, but it is pure white/blueish
all on personal perference, but i can't stand YELLOWness = P

I agree, the phillips are too yellow....
I agree. My cousin had installed the phillips in his 740, and I found it to be "too yellow". I don't like em at all. I chose the eagle HID's and I love em, very bright and "blueish". I had installed it in my fog lamps, and the only problem I have with them is that it looks better than my factory HIDs.

>>>haha darn it! is that bulbs replacement? or the entire HID set? it should be awesome, but if it is an entire set, then you don't get Lexus auto leveling tho...<<<
I kept my factory HID's for my headlamps. Before my fog lamps, i thought they were the nicest looking HIDs out...i love the color.
Even though, i liked my yellow fog lamps, I wanted 4 HIDs, but I wanted something that would match my factory headlamps....so I went with the Eagle's, which was the entire set. I had to crack the yellow cover tho....
I recommend Eagle, it looks very, very NICE!
