Default Pls HELP! about IS250/350 Daytime running light

Hi all, i'm new to this forum and i was searching on the web trying to find some help about the IS250 and IS350 DRL. I have a IS250 in Hong Kong and changed it to T10 HID bulbs, i think it looks very nice so that i bought more in Hong Kong and resell them on ebay.


I sold around 5-6 of this to united states and no problem at all, until last week, a buyer complained about that it doesn't fit his USA IS350, and ask for refund. I am wondering if IS250 DRL is different than IS350? Are they both T10? I'm not 100% sure about what is T10, maybe it's just the bulbs model and it called something else in USA. Please let me know if you know anything about this. Thank you very much for your help and please excuse my english!

Oh Thanks! I didn't know that I can't post link

If they are the same on both IS250 and IS350, that means he is just trying to rip me off? Are you 100% sure that they are the same? Thanks!

DRL is the high beam running on low power

Parking/city light is the little bulb in the upper left (white bulb)

I think what you meant was parking light not DRL right? Yes, both IS's use the same replacement bulbs. Either your ad was sort of misleading or the buyer is trying to rip you

Any size or space issues between the adaptive headlights and the standard?

This is the light bulb positive of the one that i'm selling, so i guess this one is the daytime running light, is that correct? Thanks!

Whoa, did you have the exposure high in that picture? But anyways, no those are the parking lights. The DRL is the main bulb in the center of the housing. They turn off when the headlights are on.
