Unhappy

I wish I could just pop in HID bulbs and make it look as good.

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.

Pete

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).

http://www.clublexus.com/forums/show...threadid=86195

OR

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