I've heard of people getting these into their parking lights (high beam housing) with little modification to the wiring (mainly to allow for more slack)

I just got my 5-LED reflector bulbs in from warden today. I've heard those resemble the 3rd gen GS license plate lights the best. I'll share my results after I put them in tomorrow.

Sure thing guys; but when I get home from work. Actually I got a X-mas party to attend Friday night so I'm gonna clean up the GS 2night then take pix.

One more thing, there's this guy with a 3rd-Gen GS who parks in the same lot as me (sometimes right next to me) who's headlights are "OK" but the color of the inner headlights IMO in a small way brings down the looks of the car. I'm only saying that now because I can see the difference with the stock bulb and Polarg's that I have in there now.

The same M4 bulb I posted will fit into the front? I heard reviews about the LED that Lextasy sells being weak. If it fits I will order another set.

I have a 1998 Lexus GS400 and I don't think I have DRL on my car, DO I?
So does anyone have any pics of the M4s going in the rear, above the LICENSE PLATE?

IF SO PLEASE POST SOME PICS!

Same bulbs I posted, right? M4?
