To those interested in logo projector puddle lamps, I found the best ones
So some of you may remember a few months ago I installed logo/projector puddle lamps in the front doors of my LS. I really like this mod, it looks very OEM since so many companies are doing this now. However, the lights I bought of Amazon are dim, and unless its totally dark you don't see them well. They also buzz a little when the music is turned up loud. I think I paid $11 for the set so no big surprise. I set out to try and find better quality ones.
Everything on Amazon is basically the same, but I found through another forum a high quality set and thought I'd give them a try. The logos are laser etched into the projectors as opposed to a printed cell, and the LEDs are much better. Retail was $65 but they're on sale for $39.99,
Installed them tonight, the difference is dramatic. These look so much better, more OEM too. No buzzing, much higher quality. The logos loose their "3D" look, but they're very bright, crisp and actually look more OEM for that reason.
This is a picture of the old set in my garage. The garage is light and it has a blue berber carpet in it, the old set never showed up well.

Here is the new set, the improvement is obvious:
Out on a dark street, here were the old ones:
Here are the new ones. They're crisper, a flat 2D image also. Much better:

Is it normal for it to say "undefined"? Want to order these too but just want to make sure they actually say Lexus. I tried entering a make and year but the website just refreshes and nothing changes.

Mine worked and listed the model, make & year.
Got this receipt via email.
I would try it again.

This is a little frustrating. Got it to show like below but still can't add it to cart. If I click to add the item then it goes back to just undefined and cart is still empty. This site is poorly designed (coming from a hardware/software engineer). Makes me question how securely they'll handle my payment info if I do manage to place the order. I have tried with Safari and Chrome and neither are working. Let me give them one last chance to take my money with IE, but if it's three-strikes then they're out.
Steve,
What is involved in the installation? Any special tools?
Nope, literally all you do is pop the housing out of the door panel, unplug it, plug this in (these housings replace the OEM housings) and pop them back into the door panel.
I may order another set and try the rear doors. They're an issue because the lamp housing is on the curved part of the panel, not the flat part like the front doors. Means the projector won't shoot straight at the ground, although supposedly the projectors are adjustable...

if the projectors are adjustable maybe you can do us all a huge favour and pop your front ones out and try so if it works adequately we can buy 4 at a time. If not too much trouble. THANKS !!!! Appreciate it

I bought the same ones from Amazon. Mine don’t buzz so I’m fine with them. The ones I bought for my M5 buzz like a bee though.
If these can be angled for the rear doors, then I’m sold.

They aren't the same if you bought them from Amazon. The ones from Amazon don't have the laser etched logo, and they're much dimmer. I looked everywhere and could not find anything on Amazon except the ones with the printed logo. Like I said above, I had those two and the difference between those and these are huge, logo is way crisper and more OEM looking and they are MUCH brighter.

I don't want to risk messing these up. I will likely buy another set and return them if they don't work.

I know they aren’t the same. I bought the same old ones you did from Amazon also.
Does the seller sell them on eBay or Amazon or just directly from their website?
