HID Bright went out
Does anyone have a good idea on where I could find the cheapest replacement HID bulb for one of my brights.
My dealer wants $400 just for the bulb and another $30 to install.
That seems insanely expensive.
Thanks

if theyre factory, you have HIDs in your LOW beams, not highs.
in that case, you'll need a D2(S? anyone correct me if i'm wrong). Check out xenonking.com or xenondepot.com. You should buy in pairs, I'd suggest 6000k.
if theyre really HID in your high beams, youll need a PnP 9005 HID bulb, again, check out xenonking.com or xenondepot.com.

High Beam HID
Thanks for all the information.
I just went and double checked and they are the High Beam.
Bulb is located in the smaller head light with the driving light.
Lexus told me that if my fog lights are yellow when they are turned on then I have the HID brights. If the fogs are white then it is a much cheaper bulb.
It sounds like there are some cheaper ways to go than the dealer on this one.
I won't have any money until next week. At that point I'll see if any of you still want to sell me your bulbs

the HID cars came with yellow fogs to offset the color of the HID's. They are saying that if your car has yellow fogs you have the HID lowbeams. If they are referring to them as brights, it is incorrect.
