Hi,

Just got my 2005 RX330 two weeks ago, and finally put in the HID fogs today, the HID kit I got is manufactured by Toyota (Factory) with rebased 9006 4300K bulbs.

I reached the fogs from the bottom of the car, the driver side itsn't bad, but the passenger side is pain in the ***. with headlamp washer thingy in the way, i don't have much room to work with especially with HID bulb/HID ballast in my hand. But it's finally done.

How does it light up on the road? I have a spare 9006 HID kit that I was thinking of putting in the fogligts but I haven't decided one way or the other yet.

Where did you find this kit and is very had to install?

Thanks for your time

Pick my car up last Saturday. Black Forest Pearl, Navigation/Mark Levinson, tow package, 18" Michelins, Rain-Sensing Wipers. Order it at the end of October and it came from Japan

Nice choice, in Canada, we cannot order 18" wheels unless you choose the sports package, but other packages like Luxury / Premium / Navi packages doesn't come with 18" wheels.

Back to topic, i got my kit from this dude:

The ballasts says Toyota, made in Japan. And when I was installing it, it looks exact the same as the one for my headlights.

The HID fogs look sweet! I'm glad the stock ones aren't yellow, like how my IS was

Did you ever get a chance to post some pictures at night with the HID fogs on? I think I am going to order these....was it a straight simple plug and play?

TunedRX300

Nicely done. I would like to see picture at night as well.

It's been raining these days in Vancouver, I will try to take a few pics at night when the rain stops, so you can see how the fogs light up the ground.

What are the advantages of putting HIDs in the fog lights? I know that HIDS as high beams are not recommended, but is it an improvement in lighting for the fogs or would it be better just to get yellow fogs?

bizzy928

The improvement would be more light output from the fogs. Most people don't use fog lights for only fog. The "trend" these days are to use fog lights for extra light in addition to the low beams.

HID Highbeam (retrofit) lights are not recommended because of the warm up time needed for these bulbs.

Just wondering how much was it for labor and part? cuz i might just get that for my friend's RX.
