Need some help in deciding if upgrading the DRL yellow halogen bulb is worth the trouble in my 08 LS 460. I realize that there is an after market LED kit with a R4 decoder from iJDMToy. What I cant make out from the prior posted threads on this issue is if the decoder fits inside the capped housing or is the cap to be left out. If left out wouldn't that expose the inner electricals to moisture and dust.
Also is there any non LED alternative like a halogen bulb with sky blue tint that can replace the awful yellow OEM bulb ?

Thank you

You need to put the covers back on. I did the mod as listed on this site and the decoder fits but you have to work it in a bit. If the decoder from the kit you see is bigger than probably won't.

No. I went with the parts listed in the sticky post on this site. This kit looks alright. If they give you working Hi beams that's great. The other set up do not.

I used this kit. the box itself will take a little wiggling to get into the housing. put cover back on and you're done.

if iJDMToy is using the same decoder, i removed the housing and wrapped it with electrical tape. i found this method when i was researching the mod. i don't have it on anymore since i turned off the DRL, but when i had it on for a year, i had no issues...

Carista app took care of drl issue for me swiftly. And I got to keep my high beams, for times when they are needed.

Why does the high beam function not work with LED bulbs in place with the decoders? Is there a way to actually be able to use LED bulbs for high beam function?
