Hey, im looking for HID for my is250 year 2010. YOur HID kit will be fine for this recent year right? and since it is 2010, will i need to install the HID harnass as well? my car didn't come with HIDs. I don't see any exsisting ballast when i pop the hood, so shouldn't be HID. What are your rates to Canada ontario?

I have an '03 IS300, and bought a kit from HID Extra. I didn't, however, buy the slim ballast. Any idea where/how I can make it fit near my headlights? Please help. Thanks!

Default Good, not exceptional

I bought my 6k kit from HIDEXTRA about a 1.5 yrs ago.
One side went out a couple months ago.
HIDEXTRA provides their kits at a nice price, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Bought my 2nd set of 5K kit in March, April, passenger side went out and HIDextra sent replacement part but now 2 fuse burnt and the ballasts were blown, I'm very disappointed with this product, this entire package lasted only 3 months or so and with problems such as passenger side won't open. I'm going with something moe reliable.
