Guys, I'm at my wit's end here. This is my first time posting, and I'm honestly feeling defeated. I'm trying to replace the headlights on my IS250, and it's turning into a complete nightmare.I've watched every single YouTube video and read every guide I can find. They all show the same process of removing a dust cap to access the bulb. The problem is, my headlight housing looks nothing like the ones in the videos. It's completely different.I did manage to find what looks like a cap under the indicator light, but after twisting it, it hits the car's body before I can pull it out completely. It feels like it's stuck or blocked by something I can't see, and I'm terrified of breaking it.I'm completely lost and frustrated. Has anyone else with an IS250 dealt with this? Please, any guidance or advice would be a lifesaver right now. A video or even a detailed photo would be absolutely incredible. I'm really hoping someone out there can help me before I give up and take it to a mechanic for something that should be simple.

It looks like you have the LED headlights, and if I'm not mistaken, they are not serviceable; you'd have to replace the whole unit if your low/high beams are bad. The videos you may have seen are for the ones that have HID headlights.

 

I was hoping this wasn't the case sigh. Thanks for your input.
