Replace DRL Assembly

I assume I already know the answer, but figured I would defer to actual owners of the car.

Is it possible to replace the 4GS DRL assembly (that has multiple LEDs) with one that has the single uniform DRL look (like the LS and NX)? Just curious as I saw an NX behind me the other day and couldn't stop staring at its DRLs because of how uniform they looked.

That's a negative. Unless you rip open your headlight and put some type of translucent film over the DRL section.

I figured it wasn't possible. Thanks for the response.

By the way, your color combo is the exact one I'm looking to get when it's time to buy, but they're extremely hard to find (wanted to see it in person to verify that I liked it the best). Did you buy yours brand new?

I looked at the GS new spec'd how I wanted was cresting $60k which was way over my budget. I found this GS loaded for under $50k with 10k miles. I went for a test drive and never looked back.

GS seems to be the perfect balance of sleek and sporty, while being large enough for my needs. Can't wait to start looking for one!
