I don't think it's possible. Different headlights. I heard of people retrofitting the projectors.

Anything is possible, just depends on how much you are willing to spend $$$....


If you are talking about switching the internals (projectors etc..) then it's common, Q45 are really popular these days...

If you are talking about taking entire TSX headlight assembly and swapping it on the IS300 I haven't seen anyone do anything like that yet, but as the IS300 gets cheaper and becomes more available to everyone it's only a matter of time...

Sure you can put projectors in both your high and low beams if you want..


Infiniti Q45 projectors in the low beam & some other projectors in the High beam
