Arrow H.I.D. info

Check out this link for all the HID info that you would ever need. Even has a chart of OEM HIDs in case you are going to the junk yard to pick up a conversion.

http://faq.auto.light.tripod.com/index.htm

I am in the middle of doing a front end swap from 96 to 98 head lights(https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...threadid=64348).

does anyone know what kind of HIDs are OEM on the 1998-2000 LS400? are they Philips? and most importantly are they 4000k or 6000k or what?

I ask because i have to decide( in the next 2 days) whether or not to use the OEM Lexus HIDs or an aftermarket kit. I want the brightest and also i want the blueish-white of the 6000k bulbs.

if you have any ideas let me know, thanks

6000k puts less light to the ground though.
