Default 94LS400 - 4300K lows, 3000k fogs, Polarg M4 corners

Daytime pics






Polarg M4 corners flow really well with the 4300K HID, much improved over stock yellowish bulbs





Nighttime pics... My camera isn't that good at taking them, sorry for the fuzziness.







Light output on my driveway - fogs on





Light output on my driveway - fogs off





Once I was at it, I decided to take a pic of my cluster with repaired needless (descibed here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/2554592-post30.html https://www.clublexus.com/forums/2554634-post31.html) Still works after 2 years!







And finally this is what my dashboard looks like. I got my aftermarket headunit with HD radio and aux input jack in the rear. I got my zune mounted on the right side of dashboard, with charger cable and aux cable inside the dashboard so I dont have to plug them every time. On the left side of dashboard I mounted my blackberry with the charger also inside the dashboard, and on the top of dash I got my Garmin nuvi.

Well the glare isnt anywhere near as bad in person as it looks on the pictures. And the direction, at least on the lows, is pretty damn good as well, most of the light ends up on the road, and lights up the road much better than my GS430 for that matter. I believe the headlights were revised quite a bit in 93-94 from the 90-92.

I'm attaching pictures of my GS430 - it has OEM 4100K HIDs, 3000k fogs, and Polarg M4 wedge lights.

Looks good, except that you will likely be highbeamed repeatedly.
