Hello everyone,

So i just bought my 2011 IS250 but unfortunately i dont have HID's and i was thinking of upgrading my lights so my question is, which HID would you recommend and how long does it take to install is it simple install or a hard one?

thanks

 

Most HID kits are plug and play so the installation is not hard at all. What part of Florida are you from?

 

Buy the Volt or Extreme Kit from Xenon Depot (clublexus vendor), their HIDs have good quality and brightness with 2-3 years warranty. For headlight, people usually go with 6000k HID.

 

badx33: im from fort myers florida , thanks thats true but i heard that to get to the headlight on the lexus is a pain because you have to remove tons of parts to get to them

 

thanks FSportIS im deff going to look into those i lvoe my new IS but kinda bummed out for no HIDs

 

Xenon Depot has a nice HID Color Chart when you pick your HID Bulb temperature (color).

6000K will give you a bluish tone. I went with 5000K which is hyper white. If you like the OEM HID color, you can go with 5300K.

Installation is a piece of cake. They have a nice install guide posted on their site and Steve is awesome with the support. I had to reverse the polarity on one of the side to get it to work correctly. Never had any issues so I recommend Xenon Depot Extreme HID kit.

The only parts you need to remove are the covers. intake box, and washer fluid tube.

 

if you are just going to get an HID kit for your car, thats super easy as far as install. wouldnt take you long at all. as far as who to go to, the vendor xenon depot is who alot go to.

I chose the exact same ones. Didnt really like the blue-ish 6K light output so 5K got me as close back to stock as possible
