1998 LX470

i recently installed the HIDynamic kit 8000K into my 98 lexus lx470 for both the headlights and foglights. I am definitely pleased with the results. the installation was pretty easy since the car already came with projectors.

here's a pic from the side with the fogs. the lights aren't as blue as they look in the pictures. there's a really noticeable, but tasteful tint of blue, but not as blue as in the picture.


here's another one without fogs


passenger side with fogs


passenger side no fogs


here's a closeup


i also changed the parking lights on the side to get the white color too. they were 194 bulbs so i just replaced them 5-LED side markers. you can compare the DRL with the parking light to see the difference. they used to be the same color



while i was ordering the 194 bulbs, i decided to order a couple more for the license plate lights in the back. it looks pretty cool


and i got 7443 tower LEDs, in the same white color, for the reverse lights




finally, here's one from faraway


hope you guys liked it.

beautiful. I'm gonna do that! Can you take a pic of the light pattern no a garage door to see the cutoff pattern please? Where did you get the stuff? How much? Thanks

ill post cutoff pics as soon as i get the chance for you to look at.

I bought it from HIDynamic.com. Each kit comes with everything you need and costs about $250. If you also want to convert the foglights, you have to spend another $250 on another kit. but it's a very easy install. i was a little hesitant when i saw the price, but, let me tell you, one lexus owner to another, it is definitely worth the money and is a great, do-it-yourself upgrade.

I have always been disatisfied with the amount of brightness (or lack thereof) on my LX 470 and ride around 99% of the time with my high beams on. Would you please tell me if this bulb replacement did anything for the actual brightness and light distance for you? It looks great cosmetically, and I am hoping you say it makes a huge difference in the overall brightness. I have always felt my lights were not adjusted properly until I rode in other 470's. I was told it is the bulb type on my 99. I contemplated other bulbs, but was told the only way to get a "better" brightness was to do a true hallogen replacement and was also told that this mod can lead to electrical issues. Will you please tell me if this increased your night viewing distance?
Thanks..
