Installed the PIAA Plasma FX parking lights today.
They are 5 watts just like the stock bulbs. In daylight it was hard to see that they were on. When it got dark they felt about as strong as stock.
They are very blue! Almost makes my HIDs look yellow.

I did the install myself.
As other ClubLexus members have discovered before me the passenger side is very easy. The driver side is a pain!
Next, blue fog lights would be nice.
I think we get the head lamp washer because the roads are full of slush 4 month out of every year. I'd rather have Californian weather and lose the washers.

I live in Europe and got them locally here in Sweden. Cost like $17 for the pair.

No offense, but I think that for the parking lights, the closest match to the HID's are the Polargs.
They are a direct replacement and they are brighter (18w compared to the stock 5W) I had the Piaa's installed on my car and they looked better than stock, but the problem is, when you turn on the foglights, the fact that the headlights, the parking lights, and the foglights are all different colors, make the GS look like a christmas tree.

Me and my homies (gsintensive & disc108) did the install on our cars tonight. It was realtively simple other than the driver's side. You need smaller hands to get in there and turn the bulb in... I absolutely LOVE the look. After we did the install we went cruizin and EVERYONE was peepin the TIGHT GS'S!!
Tommorrow we are going to install some PIAA's for the flood lights!! I can't wait.
Hey, if you see this guys, THANX for all the help!!!! And thanx to Angela too!! HAHA

I installed the polargs a few weeks ago and looks tight. Also I bought a set of yellow fog lights called MAX GOLD. I have the clear fog lights but decided I wanted yellow lights. Instead of buying another set of fog lights I just bought yellow bulbs. The yellow is incredibly bright, almost twice as bright as the stock yellow's.
