Changing bulbs onIS350
Hi, I've been looking around the forum and I've seen people with new HIDs and such, and I was going through that option, but I found that changing just the bulbs of the car is much cheaper and almost just as efficient? I was wondering if I were to jsut change the bulbs on my car to PIAA xtreme whites or Razo platinums, would my lights still have autoleveling? Also, is there a noticable difference if anyone has used them before? Thanks for the replies!

I thought the new IS's already came with autoleveling in the head-unit so that if you just change the bulbs, it would still have auto-leveling because you're not actually taking out the unit, and just replacing the bulbs? or am I wrong?

i think auto-leveling only comes with the lux package or the sport package

autoleveling is useful for HID to avoid blinding the oncoming traffic with the high light output. With the relatively low output of halogen bulbs, autoleveling would be an unnecessary and wasted feature. There are some Japanese cars, such as G35 and TL, that have HID without autoleveling, but not vice versa.
