I believe that for this year, it all depends on what package the GS was purchased with.

Premium package = no HID

Nakamichi package = HID

Nav package = HID

chicotrini, if you are trying to determine if your particular GS3 has them, here's the deal: the HIDs are self leveling and when the car is started, the headlights actually dip and then re-level. If your beam pattern doesn't visisbly move, either you have quartz-halogens, or BOTH leveling units are not functioning (not likely).

An even easier way to tell is if your foglights are amber then you have HID's, if your fogs are while/clear you do not.
