Smile '08 IS250 Bulb Replacement ?

Hey All,

I was wondering if someone can tell me what type of bulb replacement '08 IS250 AWD need or where I can buy.

My dealer quoted me $215 - NOT, not paying that In any case all the info they gave me is to buy Right Front HID Low Beam Bulb.

After searching the car manual it's giving me the following buls - not sure which is the right one. Anyone know? The manual does not mention HID - any advice?
- Low/High Beam (discharge Bulbs) D4S 35A
- Low Bean (halogen bulbs) H11 55 B
- High Bean 9005 60 D

Which can it be????

Thank you!!

Philips, Toshiba, or Sylvania D4S. Don't buy any other brand unless you want a different temp rating.

I did a quick search on Amazon and found a bunch.

If you have the LEXUS CHECK LED (is that what they call it?) below the headlight, then you have HID's which is the D4S bulb.

IF you only have the amber turn signals below your headlights then its H11.


If you are handy with a wrench or screw driver, then its a 2-3 out of 5 difficulty to change. requires removing some parts but non essential parts to change. the bulb.


HID bulbs will range from 30-50 per bulb. H11 bulbs will range from 10-30 for a pair of bulbs
