Welcome to CL! Fellow members have posted pics before, but the ones I found had expired links. Maybe they can be posted again...

Approx. Distance to the wall = 18 feet.

Approx. Height from floor to beam cutoff = 30 inches.

Let me know if you need width measurements...

As I mentioned in an earlier thread comparing the 600 vs 460, the LED beams are noticeably not as crisp as the 460's HIDs, but probably just as bright. This may be the result of using a much larger and sharper lens, or the finer pinpoint source using fluorescent elements on the HIDs. However, that is idle speculation on my part.

Great find. It correlates the pattern on the wall.

Here's a "rough" stitch of the L/R images.

Here are more data from the OEM supplier to Lexus:





I thought there were eight LEDs; seems there are two paired up in the lower module, bringing the total to ten LEDs.

I found this pretty cool picture of the beam path, maybe burnaby should recreate this photo next to a wall so we can see the beams full path
