Wheels, Double Din Kit, Pioneer 7", new speakers all around (has a clipping sound when the bass it turned up), HID'S for all lights, including fog and high beams. HID'S are on the first light setting, which isn't bright enough for night driving .

Can someone Photoshop some wheels? The winner will see the new wheels installed as soon as they arrive. I still have a few grand left in my customizing budget.

Welcome Zulu. Where in Chicago are you? I'm out in Prospect Heights. about 15 min north of O'hare.
You got a good deal on the car. You won't lose any money. I think you should always be able to sell the Sc for at least what you paid for it if not more.
And someone posted earlier that you did get the best version of the SC although they all are really good cars.
Are those GS400 wheels you have on the car now?
Looks nice.

Unless 98 is different, there is only one light setting for low beams. The last setting is automatic lights that come on when it is dark enough. The one before is just "on". They should be equal in brightness. If you can't see with your HID kit, you likely purchased the high temperature "tuner" bulbs. Replace them with 4300K bulbs. They put out the most bright, white light (highest lumens) by far.
Good Luck

I also need some advice on new speakers. I hear pops at high volumes, so I know I need new speakers.
Also need to know if this site is OK, to purchase my HID kit. Or would Pep Boys/Auto Zone be able to do the work? I'd rather take it in and have it done same day. So tints, speakers, double din kit. These will be done next week. http://www.hidsrus.com/lexus-sc400-hid-kit-hid-lights/

Speakers will be up to you, there are tones of options, cant really go wrong with anything.
As for HID's, most people on the forum go with DDM Tuning kits. If you search for them you'll see a buncha threads about them (including one of my own). They're really cheap, but last a long time.
..I would stay away from Pep Boys or AutoZone at all costs for anything outside of super basic stuff.

And is DDM a plug and play? I know there's slim balasts and thicker ones. I don't want to just start ordering on some trigger happy ish, then have to return stuff.
