Any help is appreciated. Does KBcarstuff.com offer ClubLexus memeber discounts?
How about this one from Amazon: http://amzn.com/B00480J4I2

Can someone help point me in the right direction on which HID to order? My driver side 2007 IS 250 HID is out and I want to replace it so that it matches the other HID. The link quoted above has three models and I assume it is just the lower cost of the three but really don't know.

There is only 3 brands that has been most commonly used on Clublexus on the 2IS that is reliable. (D4s)
1) Philips (Authentic ones) that cost like $200
2) Xenon Depot
3) Garax

Those are fake Philips from what I was told. From what I was told, Philips are one of the most counterfeited bulbs in the market. So be cautious when purchasing them.

vanduse1: If you're looking to match an OEM bulb, and only want to replace one bulb, I would suggest going with Philips D4S 4300k.

What's the estimated lifespan on the bulbs? I'm about 30k into mine I believe and about to switch to '12 headlights and trying to see if it's worth going ahead and replacing them to save a bit of trouble later?

Also, as far as 6000k goes, the bulbs you have Xenon Depot, seem to only be in 5000k or 6500k, I don't want it to be too blue so I'm afraid to go with 6500k.
I guess I should also go ahead and ask what parking lights/blinkers are recommended.(Parking match, blinker stock on 2012 style headlights)

Does a 6000k HID fog require a kit or something?

Honestly 6500K and 6000K are essentially the same as there would be no visual difference.
What were you looking to get out of your parking lights and turn signals by upgrading them?
