Default Are these compatible with IS 350?

Want to make sure 100% that these are basically PnP with my non-HID IS 350.

http://www.xenondepot.com/product.php?product_id=58

Also, I was trying to find yellow fogs and a HID DRL bulb but wasn't able to find one. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Vit, did you try contacting the vendor via email or Pm on our forum to ask your question?

You cannot have HID DRL as the DRL are just the Highs at 25% power.

Actually, you can. The HID kit wouldn't use the power source for the halogen bulb as the new ballasts would take care of that.

I'm not sure what you are saying. Regardless of power source, HID lamps cannot be dimmed down to function as a DRL. And even if one chose to eliminate the DRL function, HID lamps are not suitable for "flashing" other drivers during daylight hours.

Correct. However, one could use them as continuous high beams if they live in areas where it would be useful.

Yes I e-mailed them and havn't heard back. They didn't answer the phone when I called. Several responses but no actual answer. Does no one know?
