Default Weekend Project

This weekend, my plan is to switch out all of my stock bulbs on the front lights of my 2006 IS250 with brighter (possibly HID) bulbs. This will include my Hi/Low beams, Dual Beams, and Fog lights.

Any recommendations on what bulbs I should order for this project? I dont want to have to install any additional Kits/Pieces to the car (HID) unless it is relatively inexpensive.

Can this be a DIY job? What should I know before I go about disassembling my front end. Where do I start!!?

Thanks in advance.

FYI, I do not have previous knowledge on installing bulbs in a Lexus.

Default fogs

I see a really good tutorial on fog lights, but everything else is much more specific. I am looking for a DIY on Dual and HI/LOW beams. Do I have to take off the front bumper, or go through the hood?

For low/high beams you dont have to remove the bumper. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-pictures.html
