Hi guys. I need some clarification as I'm uber confused.

I have a 2006 GS430; my passenger side headlight went out recently. I called the dealership to quote pricing on bulb and they keep asking me "do you have HID or halogen?"

I have the type of headlights that turn and adjust when driving; so are they HID? If so...to install them does the front bumper have to be removed?

Thanks in advance for input guys!

I think they're HID's.... cause my lights can do the same thing but i barely see it move tbh.... try changing out the bulbs first before trying the ballast and mines haven't gone off since then...

Those cool white daytime running lights look nice; can you send me a link to where I can get those exact same ones from or let me know where to look? I'd appreciate it...

here's a list i only had it for about a month or less and it still working... I bought the second ones :
194 LED Bulb - 5 SMD LED Wide Angle Wedge Base
Though I sort of think they don't match the headlights... cause my headlights still need some restoration.... I've tried 3M and rain'x they both dont work... I think i'm about to try the 3M drill kit one heard that works better cause it takes alot of work to get off the yellow plastic
