The projectors will be garbage but the OEM ones aren't the best either. These would be the perfect headlights to retrofit though

Damn, now I'm going to be seeing every IS on the streets with these LED headlights now. It's a bit rice but I like the turn signals though!

Much cheaper on eBay and it looks really good in the night pics. Thinking about pulling the trigger..

Looks pretty good, I've been waiting for someone to do this. But I be the projects have to be pretty horrible on output. I spent 2 weeks retrofitting TSX projectors into my headlights, not sure I want to give it up for this. Sure don't want to spend more time retrofitting these projectors..

But they sure look pretty good.

H1 low beams ... lol. Not compatible with factory HID.

Are halogen headlights for the IS H11? If so, that means these are an upgrade for halogen headlights only - and you won't even get HID!

Not worth your money ...

On the ebay listings it says it won't fit the 2010 IS250. Is this true or are the listings wrong?

I highly doubt this will have AFS.
2011+ LED headlights from Lexus all lost AFS functionality, but yeah these are cheesy. Better than putting an ebay LED strip OUTSIDE the headlight housing like I've seen. LOL
