it's pretty easy

unbolt

bolt in

Agree. There are few other little steps in between, such as - peel back boot liner and remove 2 or 3 bolts, once these are out, give it a little nudge and they should just pop out. The do the same in reverse to install. You need to give it a bit of a hit to get it in solid.

Hey.. make sure you put up some pics after installation...

really wanna see what's looks like on a Graphite IS250..

Cheers

yeh, i'll do some before and afters, just for you, :D

the lights still arent here (they said its express shipping which only takes like 2 days to get here, from melbourne) so shuold be here tomrrow!

ok, so i finally got my lights

but the thing is, the people gave me the wire to convert to LED

but they forgot to gimme the thing that connects at the end

one side plugs into the white thing coming from the car, the other side is meant to connect to another converter, then into the lights, but they forgot to gimme the other converter...

heres a picture of the image they gave me, the part im missing is in red circle

should i tell em to send me just that part?

or can i buy it from autobarn or some where similar?

i really dont wanna ask em cause they took 1 month to send me the lights and probably will take more time to get the adapter

thanks!

I would think the other type of "Converter" you need to power up the LED would be a resistor?? I can't actually read what the label says "The LED......."

Then again you bought an off the shelf item so probably best to get in contact with the seller and get the part out so you can get it to work.

if you dont have that resistor

your car will show some error on the nav screen

lol, yeh, i have some black vinyl, im thinking of wrapping em an putting them back

but not the LEXUS, just the IS250, or maybe just IS

lol theres something else apart from the debadge

Posted

hahaha, someone notices!!!

nar, atlantis helped (well he did everything) put some black vinyl he had left over and used that to cover them up

we didnt know how to take em off, so just left it on and applied the vinyl

and cuz its vinyl i can just take them off if i want to/have to, lol

Posted

haha, thanks man

i personally dont have any experience with aftermarket HID's, but other members would be able to help you out with that

also, i have a "special" clubsticker!!

its reflective white, so at night you can see it from further away, hahaha

Posted

the reflectors? or as a whole?

lol nearly everyone hates the debadging, but i like it and thats what counts most i guess

im putting the IS back on, but in black later on

but dont really like the chrome parts on the car, so i wont be putting the LEXUS back on tho

Posted

Hmmm... not feeling the exhaust tips...

everything else looks great..

Posted

hahaha, i dont even like the exhaust that much, but i cant shell out another 150$ for them to be replaced with smaller ones

@ danny, hahaha, yeh the reflectors were somethign me nd simon came up with on the stop, still getting used to it
