I replaced mine with an exact Koito I got off of ebay for $100.00. I did have to cut the headlight to get the ballast in though because thr wire and ballast are put in before the headlight is assembled. But it has been a couple of years and I have had no problems.


Here is my thread on the issue showing the ballast you need.

THANKS!!!

I checked eBay and found a couple for sale there, but they look a little beat up. I'll keep looking.

I have a question on the swap process, but I'll ask it in your thread.

How old are they? I just bid $50 on one on eBay, so I'd start there.

Well?

If we share headlights with the Lexus IS300, couldn't I buy one of those and just take the ballast out? RockAuto.com lists them for ~$91, but I'm not totally confident that's the HID version. Hmmm... I need a Lexus forum...
