Can I still take my car to get these headlights? I recently purchased an IS with 24000 miles. How do I get them replaced? Any help would be great"?

Yes the 2011. Its garaged all week except weekends so it rarely sees sun. Only has 24000 miles. Should I just let it be ?

Sorry to dig up a old thread but i need some help.

Im looking at upgrading my 08 headlights to newer led. If both headlights I'm looking at on eBay have the lashes will the led color be the same?

Is there a part number, or another way to know which year my lights are from ? I'm ready to purchase some 12 headlights. Anyone selling?

For what it's worth, even on my car which has the newest version of the lights, one side still bubbled.

Damn, sorry to hear. I just purchased a set of 2012s, without ballasts or bulbs for 975 shipped. No bubble, great xoncondit. How isnthat? Would you say I got a good deal?
