Looks so good. Lexus really dropped the ball by not doing this in the 3IS. What's next?

Please take an overwhelming amount of pictures, and if you feel like it make a video!


I would be super interested in seeing this process go down. When it comes time for me to go boost, im going to be doing the install myself.

This is one of the most well done, beautifully modded 3IS's I've ever seen!
Stellar work Edwin!

Hi, while using this thread as a guide I have just finished retrofitting the 2017 is200 f sport headlights on my 2015 is250 f sport. Everything works except the passenger side high beam and signal indicator. I did noticed that the passenger side harnesses didn’t use up nearly as much of the factory pins as the driver side did. Did i miss something? Thanks In advance!

you likely need to run a LIN bus wire from one headlamp to the other for the passenger headlamp to understand when it needs to turn on or off the High Beam.

What solution did you find for that blue LVDS/GVIF wire for your 10.3" screen swap?

The head unit is not a plug n play swap on the RC like it is on the IS. Gonna have to do some repining.
