Default Need new drl/high beams???

Any suggestions- where to buy, what brand?

I have 8000k hid headlights, what would look the best?

Good luck on trying to match LEDs exactly to the 8000K though.

I just installed my 68 SMD leds from iJDMtoy and they look awesome! Even though you loose High Beams, its worth the look..

I am running 102 SMD led in mine with the a kit I got from ebay for $20
They still function decent enough to be used as high beams too.

I hope you bought the decoders too so these work correctly. And please make sure you check polarity before you install it or else you might damage the decoder!

Here's a helpful tip for installation: If the bulb is not locking into place, the bulb may not be fully seated into the housing, to prevent this, replace the o-ring on our LED bulb with your stock one and it should go in much smoother.

Yes, we offer a slim decoder. It's only available upon special request through me or one of our associates though as it is a special item. If you want to exchange it, contact us via email at info@ijdmtoy and provide us you order #, just let us know that you want to exchange what you have for the slim decoder and our staff will be happy to assist you.
