Default Newer Headlights and Tail Lamps

Are the newer style lights P&P for a 2007 car? And also, is the factory navigation a direct P&P over the standard radio or no?

the 2011, and 2012 LED headlights will plug up but do require some wiring to make them direct plug and play. You can try Sewell Lexus they sell a loaded,( all the bulbs, ballasts ect) and stripped version without.

Do you have factory HID or halogen lights?

I'm interested in this also so I just called Sewell Lexus and they said they no longer do discount pricing for club Lexus members and it will be retail pricing only even for people that were members of the Sewell Lexus Parts site before the site was shut down. That sucks I just got my Lexus 2 weeks ago.....

They still do discount over the phone for pre existing member that registered on they're original online store. Anybody after that who want discount like new member like you won't get it. But they're discount isn't as like it once was. You can also try myllparts.com they give 10% off and free shipping on order over $150.

I asked the guy I spoke with about preexisiting members getting a discount over the phone and he said that the pricing matrix for the discounts are no longer in effect for anyone. I guess he be mistaken? Either way I will try the site you provided. Thanks!

Yeah Lexus parts are not cheap, it's a huge upgrade to the non LED headlights, keep an eye on the classifieds, they come up from time to time, there's a current listing right now.

I saw a loaded pair in perfect condition go for $1,000 a couple days ago. That'd be the most id spend on them so yeah I'll be keeping an eye out.

Any where else I can find a used pair besides eBay?
