DIY: 2006-2013 LEXUS IS250/ IS350 – Factory HID to LED conversion, STEP BY STEP

This is only for models that came with a factory HID kit, The link for the item we used will be below $90 with 1 year warranty.
also this was done on 06-08 but we have done it on 06-2013 so it will work on all those years the clips or amount of clips and bolts might be a little different.

Will the kit you linked in the video work on a 2010 es 350?

Homie…put some bass in your voice.

You do not needed to cut the wire from the ballast, you can just open the metal housing and remove it then fish the wire out 🙂 that is how i replaced my ballasts instead of ungluing the headlights and gluing them back ( time consuming and its not easy ) but you said you do not need to reuse the ballasts so yea.. great video I am looking how to convert the lights on my IS 250 , 2008 to LEDs.

That Lexus has been wrecked. That's why it was messed up so much at the connections.

Latin Ace says:

How much would it cost for Lexus to do it

pnketia says:

OMG! All this just to change a frickin bulb! No wonder they charge $150-$250.

Admin says:

I have a question I have a 2011 Lexus ES 350 with a halogen projector housing, since of projector already would I be able to throw a hid bulb in it or would I have to do a conversion kit?

la nave del sabor says:

Great video. I do have a question. Why can't you just tab on to that original wiring harness ???? Why did u deleted??? This way the entire headlight wouldn't have to be removed. Can u explain please. Thank you

Volkov says:

If you take out the air cleaner box and the washer fluid hose you can just get to the housing from there, the other side is even easier.

Keneil Bryan says:

How much a job like this cost?

ExtremeRecluse says:

I have just decided to buy a complete headlight assembly with led bulbs. I don't care about the rotating projector. Where can I go to find a plug and play headlight assembly?

Ardit Gjeta says:

Its too dangerous to wiring that way without a light relay. You can burn your car. For conversation from hid to led or h7 you should change the whole headlight because hid projector spread light all over and with a 12v 35w LED you cant watch in dark. HID is 85volt.
Anyway I recommend to put a relay

ExtremeRecluse says:

I just tried to replace my low beam light bulb on my 2007 ES350. I thought it was halogen. Found out it is HID. I removed the HID bulb and the assembly started to smoke. I shut it off and it stopped smoking. The light bulb is working though. I am scared of a fire starting. i want to convert to LED since large improvements have been made compared to HID. Don't know if I would be able to do this conversion with the smoking.

10:12 where did you get that plastic piece from?

Reyo El Patriarca says:

IRISH COWBOY says:

250000 VOLT IN THAT BALLAST BATTERY GOT TO BE DISCONNECTED! SOME GOT KILLED IN AUTOZONE PARKING BY MESSING WITH BALLAST

IRISH COWBOY says:

My 2007 LS460 left bulb isn't working tried changing bulb but didn't work ! Any suggestions

Robert Leal says:

what if your ballast is bad? I've replaced my HID twice, but this last time, the bulb stopped working so assuming I have a bad ballast. So does the led conversion eliminate the need for the ballast?

Ray Carrillo says:

Excellent step by step instruction. Thank you!!
