Default Is 350 fsport headlamp question

So I am curious to see if i can install 8k D4S bulbs for the 2014 IS 350 F SPORT. Does anyone know if it is compatible or does the LED headlamps need to be replaced completely?

They aren't HID projectors so you can't use hid bulbs.

Honestly, don't go backwards. The trend is HID is getting obsolete or more mainstream.

LED is already becoming a norm as improvement continues. Generally the light spread is better in LED.

Non-luxury models - Toyota Corolla, Honda Accord and the 2016 Mazda Mazda 6 all either have LED as standard equipment or optional at a affordable price.
