1993ES300x, I'm in Bayside right by Northern blvd.
SC300Es, everything worked out good.
lexterES, motion pics comin up along with night shots.
superpats, don't ask me about the paint buddy... I'm about to put my leg on Ebay!! lol
lexusk8, sharp eyes buddy! I thought no one would notice the PIAA 5000k's i have in high beams. My exhaust is bent from pulling out of my driveway.
I'm also going to be installing white led's for rear turn sigs along with the 00-01 conversion. I'll post more pics soon.

Although I don't know of anyone who's tried it, if you still want to install rear turn signal white bulbs or LED's, you could try breaking apart the amber-like housing and cleaning away the plastic pieces. Just get a screwdriver and a small hammer, and pound away (lightly of course) I've seen this done on some of the RX300 tailights, and the GS front turn signal lights.

Sad but true observation of these tailights

Well the bulb is orange itself also, but you'll see what I mean about this amber-like housing when you disconnect the bulb from the tailight. A long time ago, I almost thought about installing red bulbs in the rear turn signals until I saw what's exactly behind the tailight
