The flasher relay just slows down the blinker to normal speed. Also this post is from 2012 but look here as you should be able to find info you need https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...on-how-to.html

Pretty sure it was an option on IS250's .Best way is to take the bulb out to see what you have as the Halogen and HID projectors look pretty close to the same. Your going to have learn how to do it anyway to see if it's actually the bulb that's bad . Swap them side to side to verify it's the bulb. Here's the DIY and very detailed great write-up......https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...hid-bulbs.html

Well according to Lexus's 2012 IS product information press release in this pdf ,it was standard on the IS350's and Optional on the IS250's. Look on page 8 ,Factory Options and on Standard features it says"HID headlamps with LED daytime running lights & washers (IS 350 only)"
It could be wrong though I guess as the dealer should know this??

Congrats!Nice lights as I just installed some 2012's in mine .Yep..............They are D4S!
Watch who you buy your bulbs from as the majority of HID bulbs are Chinese knockoffs . Like the majority of those Philips coming from Amazon and Ebay. Most don't know or care as long as they work and they think they genuine because they were told they were. They think they are getting a good deal for one and really getting a $5 knockoff. Plenty of HID forums to read up on bulbs and here's a couple links to start.
