I have the same set ready to go into mine  :smiley: Just need to figure out how to wire the DRL strip to actually work as DRLs instead of glorified sidelights. Hurdy and Komenda (soon to be AlanDs) have them too!

:D :D :D :D

Can you still use the Phillips Extreme bulbs with these headlight units?

Yep all booked in for 8:30 so an early start. I'll PM you the postcode for the Nav.

Probably strip mine down first thing, then if you get there for 9 we can push mine out and swap the stuff over so you can shoot off then put mine back together.

Anyone know more about the wiring for these lights?

Are there any CAN-Bus issues with the angel eye lights?

Id like to find out exactly what wiring needs to be done to get these fully functioning, without OBC errors.

I do like the look of them - if they throw the light as good as stock halogens, Im keen!

Lexus lights on ANY car other than a Lexus are chavtastic imo.

I know what you mean - but I think the description is inaccurate here tbh. They look nothing like lexus lights in the flesh - and don't you think they would match the black angel eyes?
Or can you recommend something different?
Quite a difficult colour car to plan for really-would be much easier in black!
