Most of all that is custom. I've never seen STI lenses in the Lexus. Most people use TSX projectors.

A lot of members have swapped STI-r lenses including me. But if you ask me, it's not worth the hassle.

Huh, the 2IS projector has a 3" lens, of the two common lens sizes, it is regarded as the bigger lens (2.5" would be smaller).

Also, if you are doing a retrofit, there isn't really a point in doing JUST the lens... You should swap in a better projector.
