Default Halogen headlight with AFS

Hi,

I need a new (left) headlight but I'm not sure which one to buy. The car has halogen (non xenon) headlights with AFS, but if I search through the parts list of an IS250 I don't see the combination of halogen + AFS. Only option I see is HID + AFS but I don't need HID. Do you guys know what I need to do? Is it an option to buy a HID light with AFS and install my halogen lights in it?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
RRGS

Are you sure they have AFS? I thought it was only with HID headlights.

Yes I'm sure because I can turn the AFS off. It's a Japan spec IS250.

Hmm maybe it’s an option for Japanese versions only. Is it possible to buy a HID headlamp with AFS and install my normal (halogen) bulb in it?

Nope, not without serious modification. Do your headlights move up/down when they are started? Side to side when turning? If not, it's most likely just a residual menu option in the jap spec models.

Yes, they are plug and play if you are sure your car has AFS. If your car don't then it workS just fine but no AFS. I'm 1001% sure IT WORKS WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM!!!!!
