Needs new headlights!
Hey guys,
so first things first on my GS i need to get new lights, high beam and low beams have a lot of condensation. Rather then trying to blow them out (which ive already done) and trying to seal them myself i want to get new ones. so ive done a little research and found several differnt sets off of different sites but they dont list as oem.
Can anyone reccomend a good site for the lights or do i need to just spend an arm and a leg at lexus??
help! thanks

LuxuryMods can help you with the retro if you're uncomfortable doing it yourself. They sell brackets to make your life so much easier. I'm planning on getting the brackets from them and the projectors and other hardware from the RetroFit Source after spring arrives.
You can buy them from http://lexus.sewellparts.com/ make an account so u can get the clublexus discount
ive never understood the term retrofit.. can someone enlighten me?
does it mean installing another/different pair of lights from a different car? or does it have something to do with those halo lights?

My GS didnt come with HID's (even though i have since put 8k's in), so can i even use these headlamps are they the same fitment?
What retofitting means is taking newer technology/design and replacing obsolete technology/design with it.
I just replaced my headlights with an aftermarket halo set for less than 300 bucks, and they look awesome to me. 98 GS 400 and the originals were yellowed far more than I wanted to buff em out.....so I have the old dingy yellowed originals if anyone needs the gas chamber that's in it....
Here's where and what I replaced the originals with and I love the look!

They have two different sets on there. One with HID option and the regular halogen ones. They both have the same fitment but if your car didn't come with HID you will have to get new ballasts installed as well as D2R HID bulbs.

These are what I just replaced my headlights with, and they look and work awesome for less than 300 bucks.....Saved a thousand bucks and put in a new Kenwood dvd in dash to replace the stock system....which needed a bypass of the stock amp unfortunately, but I got some kick *** sounds now and the lights make the car look new! Love my GS400!
