Default City Light LED Bulb

Hello,

I've read up on the light sticky threads and I'm overwhelmed with all the information. I have a 2007 IS250.

Can anyone recommend a city light LED bulb that would match the XenonDepot H11 Volt Kit (6000K)?

Also, if I disable the DRL, would that mean my high beams won't work either? If they still work, I will just keep the high beam bulb stock as I hardly use them anyway.

Thanks in advance for all the info!

I actually just changed mine today. I used some old v-led 360 5 l.e.d. 194/168 bulbs. It seems V-leds has become pricier than the last time I ordered and you can only buy bulbs in pairs. Guess they needed more money for their new website

You can change them by removing the engine covers, the upper airbox on the passenger and the top of some other wiring box on the driver side which is bolted on. Itll be a pain for the driver side to get the headlight cover off because of a wire harness and the windsheild wiper fluid refill neck. Youll need to undo the 3 - double tabs on the harness and unbolt the filler neck for the wiper fluid and shove it to the right. Hope you have some tiny screwdriver to undue that harness because my needle nose pliers were too fat. After that youll get enough room to eventually get it out. Getting it back in will also be frustrating but it is possible.
Overall its just going to suck unless you either take the bumper, front lip, and grill off or you have someone with tiny hands who can help you out.

I took my bumper off to get better access. Plus, I needed to install an aftermarket HID kit anyhow.
