Default I want somebody to help me

I been looking for the 2011 headlights and I have a friend that works at the Lexus dealer so I told him to find out for me how much he can get It for but when he went to ask they told him that those light won't fit my 2008 isf cuz it has t
Different things like the bolds move to where ever the car moves and that only after market light can fit the isf in that 2011 style and that after a while with the after market lights water would get inside the headlight eventually so I'm confused bc I seen many isf with this new headlight are they after market or the stock headlight from the 2011 isf ? Do they fit perfectly fine ? Show u just buy them ? I ur help please anyone I don't know what to do now 😫😢😢😭😭

The lights are plug and play. The only thing you'll lose is the AFS function that your 2008 headlights have. That isn't a big deal for most who've swapped out the headlights, but other than that, there isn't really an issue with the 2011+ headlight sizing. And the new LED headlights are from the factory, not aftermarket. It does give the front a nice refreshed look if you're looking to go that route.

Club Lexus price at Sewell is $1975 for the kit.

The part numbers you want are 81135-53670 & 81185-53670. If you search the web, there are much cheaper options.

As Lance stated, it is a pretty penny to get a set without the bulbs and ballasts. Some may wish to reuse the ones they have, and others have been searching for ones fully loaded, which is $2400 with the Club Lexus member rate. It certainly isn't cheap, but it gives the F a newer look. The other alternative would be to search the junkyards and hope for a 2011+ F there to obtain the headlights, but that is a really rare instance.

They also added eye lashes to defuse sunlight to better deal with the bubbling of the black portion on top of the led strip.
