Just a word of advice to anyone considering getting the lights from a JDM/UK source, or lights from countries where you drive on the opposite side of the road, US spec lights require a right uptick to light road signs while Japan/UK, etc lights light up driver's side of the road.
Use the wrong spec lights, and you'll be blinding oncoming traffic and right-hand road signs will remain dark at night. Just a safety tip.

yep. i've been trying to hunt down a set of CHINA LHD 17+ tripple beam headlights. Only reason I would do the conversion.
Awesome! I've been thinking of doing this with a 2015/16 IS but was wondering if everything fitted exactly and the cost of parts...would it be worth doing to save $$ or better just buying a 17 model..
Sorry that I’ve been MIA for a while. Work, school and kids have kept me super busy.
I got the lights form a source in Japan. They are pricy.
I suggest you look at eBay auctions. There is a website where you could get them brand new but you’re looking at about $4k each.
after having my full apexi catback system for a couple days, i can assure you getting the midpipe will not help with drone, i have it between 2000-3500 rpm but it doesnt bother me because the exhaust sounds so good!
I can just imaging how much nicer they sound with a full set. I don’t think I want louder than what they are rightnow. So I am going to avoid getting the kid pipes if it ain’t going to improve the droning. Thank you for the 411
Hey man! Sick build , do you have an instagram or more pics? I've been thinking about going with the bronze calipers and painting my rear diffuser black as well ! did you use VHT caliper paint?
Thank you. My Instagram is 3ISfSport . I’ve uploaded some videos and pictures there. I’ll post more pictures here soon.
I went with the Gold paint and yes I used a spray caliper paint from VHT then I placed the decals and clear coated with high heat resistant clear coat.
I love how the rear diffuser looks color matched to the car. Much better than the gray.

The lights I got have a lever adjuster. This adjuster makes the lights adjust to the left or right. I was able to adjust so that it lights towards the signs and center and it does not blind people. The light output is great. I personally think it provides better light output than my previous dual headlights.
If you do buy these lights Make sure it comes with these adjusters. My believe is that they all come with it.

I found it to be worth it for me since I had the car paid off. after going through all the expenses I think it was worth it for me.
Howwever, you have a newer car. I would imaging that you could get more money if you were to sell it. You might be able to find a good price on an used 2017+.
however you would still need to buy the headlights and taillights from UK or Japan.
the benefits would be that it would all be plug and play.
It was really hard for me to get the lights to work properly. And I had to spend a lot more than anticipated on front end parts.
I would suggest that you sell private party your car to earn as much out of it and buy 2017+ used. Then order Japan lights.
Got my hands on all these. 😁
I need help finding the updated blue wire, plug or harness for the 10” display.
The radio plugs and plays and functions good. It also works with the old 7” display however the image cuts off due to the resolution being meant for 10” display.
Can any of you help me find the Blue Connector. It would either have to be cut off a junk 2017+ car or I would need to know a way to get it from the dealer.
