Hi there, i have IS 250 europe version from Ireland, are they gonna fit without any issue? what about AFS does it light up or you need to take fuse out? my one have just regular bulb, not even xenon one - is that gonna be ok and just plug & play or you need change voltage, reprogram main computer etc? thx.

Hi. I've purchased the same headlights from "DEPO" on amazon (actually I did that after watching this video, and they actually fit perfect, look great e.t.c. I'm very grateful for this honest review). But I have a problem with the nike style DRL. They work only when the low/high beams are on. Other time the high beams bulb is on like half strenght (like thats the real DRL). In your video on 11:24 we can actually see that only the nike-style lights are on. So is there any secret of activating that mode or smth? Please help.

Hey uh!! What did you do with the old headlights? Send’em to me. I don’t really care about the check led mark. I had a 12 IS250 that the wife totaled but she wrecked our 08 model first I still have it. You know the ones with the recall on the runner melting dash and recalls on the airbag. just need factory headlight the 08 we have light are good but the molded brackets mounts are broken. And you can’t even get a good dell on those headlights, hood , fenders and bumper from a salvage yard. They want a good US mint... If you hadn’t sold them let me know what you want for them...

Joe Black most LED bulbs have huge heat sinks and they don’t fit inside this headlight. Also LED technology is nice but the power output isn’t as strong as a 55w HID despite what some manufacturers claim. There are detailed tests on this you can see on KZbin. That said, I still went LED at the end when I found one that would fit.

petersu33 hey Peter, so the actual LED stripe works when your headlights are on at night (in auto) but during the day only the highbeams work as DRLs (in auto) To get the LED stipe to turn on during the day, you need to switch the headlamp stalk to the 1st position, the one that is like just a circle icon. Not sure what it’s called exactly.

Updated links to these headlights because original seller ran out of stock: amzn.to/2DxWxnH amzn.to/2PJKdYP UPDATE: after about 3 months with these headlights and an HID kit, one of the headlight fuses burnt out. So id recommend upgrading the fuses for them or finding an LED kit where the heat sink is small enough to fit into the headlight. If all else fails, you can always just upgrade with some good halogen bulbs. LED kit I ended up using: amzn.to/2PDgaCd Also, one of my nike led dots went went bad but the seller replaced it with the warranty.
