Lol so are the ones posted up earlier. I'm not trying to take anything away from the owner, they look dope as f***.
The ones from that retro fit has the halos around each projector just like the reps. The real ones are massive and don't have halos

True, almost all ls600 retrofits out there are using replicas. Which has crappy lowbeam output, so they end up transferring the lowbeam to the highbeam. I really wana see oem ones retrofitted that move on start up, even its a single row. Btw love what you've done with yours 👍👍.

Those look bad ***! I originally wanted to go that route too but don't have the time or patience to make the brackets. I took the easy way out with the Q45s LOL. How is the light output and cut off on those LS600 style projectors?

that's a nice picture of your car...Like your tucked style instead of VIP styled...Your headlights look great. I can only hope your output meet the same level of awesomeness your headlights.

The light output is definitely better than my HIDs that I had in my oem housing. It's great. But people have higher expectations than others.
