00 Platinum Edition have HID
I have searched and looked around but couldn't find anything and don't know anything about this. Does anyone know if a 2000 lexus gs300 platinum edition come with HID lights?
The lights are like whitish but they dont turn on you know when I turn my car on they just come on. My fog are yellow if that matters. The headlights casing says 'HB4' on the outside casing. To get HID's do I have to get all new headlight housings or whatever or can I just get the HID conversion kit from XenonDepot or wherever?

you can get a plug and play HID kit like i did (xenonking.com, 179.99 shipped) but with the factory halogen housing you'll get a lot of glare and not a neat cutoff like the HID reflectors or projectors.
best light output would be a projector (ls430 or q45) retrofit, but are very time consuming, difficult, and costly.
next best bet would be track down some OEM hid reflector bowls, change the stock halogen bowls out for those, and then get a plug and play kit that uses d2s bulbs.
and finally, blinding oncoming drivers all the time, just slap a plug and play HID kit in your halogen housings. this is what i did, and if you aim them correctly you can alleviate some of the glare and still keep the output much better than halogen.
i would recommend 6000k bulbs

I own a Platinum 300 and my car didn't come equipped with HID's! I have since incorporated the HID'S in the headlights and in the fogs with yellow foglights!
If I'm not mistaken only the 400's came with HID's for the Platinum Series?
It can be done with a conversion kit , but you will need to change out your headlights to HID housings, if you want it to work! Good luck.
