Doc,

man you're getting me thinking about getting rid of my silverstars and using the razo bulbs. They look ALOT better IMO (closer to HID color) hmmmm........ the wheels are turning

Any chance you might want to remove that Gracer lip, paint it black, and send it to me??? My ride's in the body shop RIGHT NOW J/K

I've got RAZO Premium White Zeros on my RX300 - they look awesome and have VERY nice lighting performance too. I got mine here:

www.optauto.com (options auto salon is a reputable place) I think I paid like $55 for em.

BTW, if any of you need a NICE looking 168/194 size parking light bulb to match the RAZO Zeros, find a white LED - that's by far the closest thing to match the Zeros... not sure what type of bulb you guys use for the parking lights though.

Default SilverStars

I have a 93 GS and for my dull, non-HID headlights, SilverStars were whiter, but dimmer than stock halogen.

I think I'll try RAZO to see if they give off more lumens.

Many here are correct - the RAZOs are VERY WHITE, with just the tiniest hint of blue, which is most like stock 4100k color temp. If you're trying to match up something to the 6000k phillips ultinon HID bulbs, I haven't heard of anything here that matches and looks good, but I haven't exactly spent a lot of time looking either as that doesn't really pertain to me.

The RAZOs look VERY HID like if you've got very clear headlight lenses, OR projector lenses, which lucky for MOST Lexus owners we DO have one of these type of headlight configurations... Those two types of headlights work by far the best for HID "fakeouts", meaning looking like real HID without being HID, and at that, the RAZOs are the best possible bulbs I have found to pull of this look, without compromising performance of the bulb or looking too blue and cheap. If you like HID, you have clear headlight lenses or projector lenses, and want to improve your lighting performance and looks without spending big chaching on an HID conversion, try the RAZO ZERO bulbs - I don't think you'll be disappointed. I get asked all the time about my "HIDs" - I usually just smile and don't say much
