Chaning hid globes easy as reading a book

Take light cover off

Unclip the globe

Unclip the wiring

Take out globeinstall

And reverse the steps

Easy enough to do it yourself dude.

I bought a Garax 6K kit from iJDMToy on fleabay when they had a sale on, cost me under $100 shipped if i recall correctly

I'll try and find the tutorial from ClubLexus for you

edit - cant find it on my phone, but found http://my.is/forums/f154/08-is250-hid-bulb-replacement-guide-369170/#post5521739

if you're in the north ryde/macquarie park area you can drop by my place and ill help you do it

oh, im 99% sure from memory they're d4s globes if you have the HID version

it'll be better to replace both at the same time if they're HIDs as the colour temperature and light output changes over the course of a HID globes lifetime

thanks mate i might take you up on the offer a guy in my soccer team owns a spareparts shop i'll get them then hit you up

thanks

Do you usually have to take out the intake to be able to reach?

I recall it was really tight when fitting stuff for terrrrry

Yep, intake out on the drivers side to get to the bulb easily. Pull the wiper reservoir neck out on the passenger side for more room too.
