Default HID Conversion kit IS350 help

I've been looking for an HID conversion kit for my 2006 IS350. IDK if its because my bulbs are old or what, but my lights arent very bright at night. I was looking to resolve this issue because I feel it is a safety hazard. I cannot seem to find a kit for my headlights. I've been on several websites and no luck. Even searched the forums for a while. They have fog lights and everything else but not plain old headlights. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ty.

Not sure why youve been having a hard time.....

Im assuming your car did not come with HIDs from the factory so you need a H11 HID kit

On the site that was just linked, if I put my vehicle info in, it makes it hard to find stuff. I guess I wont do that in the future. Thanks everyone.

Not sure why, xenondepots website actually helped me out a lot.

Dont forget to specify if your car came with HIDS or Halogens, it brings up a different menu of bulb types

If your car comes in HID, then you need D4S bulb only. Garax and Morimoto are popular. I have Garax but it feels it is less bright than stock. Or you can get stock bulb (phillips)

If your car comes in Halogen, you need HID kit (bulb and ballast). Xenondepot is a good choice and there are a few other places as well. Search the forums for different price/service, etc.
