Default IS350 Hid question...

I know this is a stupid question.
I have a 2006 IS350, and I dont even know if i have HID! hahahaha....
How do you see it besides by looking at the color? Any1 has picture of an IS with no HID on the low beam? And any1 has picture of a stock IS with HID? How can you differentiate if you have a stock HID on your IS just by looking at it even in the day????

If u switch it on, it burns bright then fades then gradually turns bright.
Or if u see its brighter than ur previous car with no HID.
And if its more white than yellow.

You can try that, but an easier way is to tell is what everyone else is saying. Have the car off and turn on the headlights. If you hear a buzzing sound, it's HID. If your headlights move, they're HID.

If you got the X package, then you should have HID's.
