Customer with 2001 ES300 wants HID conversion..

I've been doing some reading and have found out that they have a desirable headlight housing. Can someone send me a link of an HID kit for the car. I assume i need ballasts, wiring and the whole nine yards, but if not cool. They guy said he was willing to spend up to $600-$700..so whatever you guys think is best!

For the Xenon headlight housings, check out the ES300 Classifieds section. A couple members are selling them:

For the bulbs and ballasts, wiring is usually included, and D2R is the type of bulb you'll need. Your best bet is to go on Ebay and search for "lexus d2r". You'll find plenty of auction items for D2R bulb and ballast kits up for grabs. Good luck

I can help show you the retrofit option as well which gives you much better beam pattern over OEM HID reflector because you get to use HID projectors of your own choice. Once I'm done with the LS430 projector retro and a couple others on the horizon I'll show Clublexus what an ES300 retrofit with the sharpest Acura TSX projectors are all about! But for now, check out my own HID retrofit I did on the 99 Coach ES I own here

and the TSX one in the works

Enjoy!
