LED headlights
Afternoon guys,
New owner of a 2006 GS300. I've had the car for about 5 months now and I am loving everything about it. I already replaced a ballast that went out with the help of the community and did an HID conversion for my fog lights. Next thing I want to change the little bulbs that share the housing with the high beams. I'm looking into LEDs but all the threads about it are a bit old 2+ years and a lot changes in that time, so I come to you for help. Do i need anything special to do it (special ballast)? Is the bulb wide 194? What is the maximum wattage allowed? From what I have seen, the best option it to get a 360 so that it fills the whole housing, so what would you recommend? Any other advice regarding this is welcome.
Thank you for your help in this and for the help during all my past and future diy endeavors.

I used the 360 LED also I had the blue but it was too blue and was afraid of getting a ticket so I opted for the white and put the blue ones under the mirror for the puddle light.

New bulb on the left Vs the factory bulb.
It;s a simple swap procedure, remove the engine bay lining by popping out the tab clips holding them in place, the bulbs are in a "stalk" that runs into the housing. it has a flat tab extending out the back you will see, grab it, twist it, pull it out and replace the bulb, remember the new bulbs will likely be polarity sensitive so check they are in the correct + and + before you stick them back in the housing. If you need help feel free to PM me.

Did mine as well. Very easy straight forward. I did 6000k all white everything. All white DRLs coming soon. Bought these high quality T10s off eBay. Very cheap. Thought I'd share.
