Default Headlights for 2014 IS350F!!

Please help me find headlight that point straight and are LED and bright white headlights,

Currently running piece of ****** lights made in taiwan sold to me through Carparts.com for $1300 for these faulty headlights the passanger side points down and the driver side is perfect I took it off and adjusted the headlight it didnt adjust also the headlights that I bought from car parts.com needed me te re use the little square that came inside the original lexus headlight I have the double light and i guess my car uses xenon Instead of LED headlights.

Original Lexus headlights went dim and the Carparts.com are now DIMM and not straight.

I found these and I like these and makes the car more modern looking but it says it works with only the single headlight IS so basically the base model not the F model so what headlight can I buy or would these work fine for me?

In my experience, good quality aftermarket headlights are not cheap. These off brand headlights typically don't perform very well due to poor optics. They may look bright, but they'll scatter light and won't throw light as far it should.

Generally speaking most aftermarket headlights aren't made with the same R&D as an OEM parts, they're designed with only aesthetics in mind.

But I will say this. I have the OEM triple beam led headlights and out of the box, they are very underwhelming. On a non lit road I can maybe only see 30 ft in front of me. This should remedied by adjusting the headlights just a tad higher.

with all this said. I would stick with OEM parts.

If your 2014 came with dual beam lights, those are LED. The single beam units are non-LED. I have the OEM dual beam LED units on my 2014.
