What HID Light Kit are you using?
I am in the market for a HID Light Kit for a GS 300, I would like to know what kit should I use for a nice seamless install.
Thanks...and have a Merry Christmas

you're looking 1000.00+ retrofit and this is not a do it yourself project because it involves taking off your lights and baking them to taking off the whole assembly which is the easy part.
the hard part is installing the q45 assembly and lining them up so it looks good and putting eveything back together.
just get an aftermaket philips 4100/4300 kit thats easy to install. your night vision will be drastically improved.

I have a 6000k Philips based kit from HID-online.com and a 4300k Philips based kit fron Xenondepot.com. Both companies make quality kits using Philips components. If you like a little purple tinge to the color of the light then spend the extra money and get the 6000k kit. Otherwise the 4300k kit is great. It's just a preference for color. DO NOT GO FOR ANY OF THOSE CRAPPY ASIAN KNOCK OFFS THAT ADVERTISE 8000K OR HIGHER! They are made of crappy parts and the bulbs won't last. Hope this helps you some.

USE Xenondepot
Seriously call or E-mail Xenondepot. They use all philips HID kits that are plug and play so no splicing or tapping into factory wires. They take about 40 minutes to install and Xenondepot.com is a clublexus sponsor so they will give you a discount. Make sure you tell Steve you are a CL member.

I used to have 6000k Philips kit but after I did projector retro I can see now how much better retro is then kit. With retro you have very sharp cutoff line and light on the ground is very even plus nice flicker. With kit - mucho glare.I still have 6000K Philips kit - in my fogs. 
I purchased my 6000k Philips HID with philips bulbs and ballasts from ken @ sales@kwimports.com. I have had them on my car for 2 yrs with no problems! He normally sells for 500 shipped, but when you tell him bryan with the black gs sent you, he will offer you the lexus discount which is 480.00 shipped.
