Can't find Headlight bulbs
Car: 94 ES 300
I replaced my headlight assembly's with some I ordered from a dude in Japan off EBAY. Now I need to replace my headlight bulb and nothing from my local auto parts store fits. I am thinking I now have Windom headlights but I am not sure. Any idea where I can get bulbs? Anyone else run into this problem? Please help.
this is the bulb i was using - koito 12v 55w 4XC PAT.4500946
my headlight assembly looks like this with the horizontal lines (minus the eyelids)

Nope. The part where the rubber seal is-is too wide. The thickness of the sylvannia bulbs I tried does not allow the bulb to go in far enough to where the 3 tabs are sunken which would all me to turn and lock in place.

unfortunately, you have the JDM version of the headlights. USDM bulbs won't fit and that's the surprise buyers get buying these off ebay. now imagine buying an HID kit to install in them and find out the bulbs wont fit.. JDM version light assays also do not have the circle water-bubble level indicators for light adjustments.
google for 9005J and 9006J bulbs for distributors. maybe memoryfab.com can help since they can order JDM rims, etc.

Had this problem with headlight assembly I bought from Canada. After extensive research (searching the web)
I came across the solution. What you need (at least in my case) is a Koito 0474 bulb. The only place
I could locate it in the us was AutohausAZ, obviously in Arizona. Solved my problem. Hope this helps!
