New "HID" system from Sylvania!
For those of you wanting/interested in HID take a look at this link:
http://www.sylvania.com/xenarc/prodinfo.htm
Looks promising, if they have Lexus applications.

TXSYTLE,
Do you think Xenarc X1010 Auxiliary Low Beam Kit would work in the where the GS foglights are??
At first glance it looks like it might but i'm no expert..

Excellent question! It does appear that one of the Xenarc kits is indeed for "foglight" applications, as shown on their site. I would call or email them with that inquiry. As for me since I have factory HID's I'm going to purchase their "SilverStar" line of bulbs which is suppose to be the brightest on the market and as close to xenons for my high beam & foglight bulbs. I'll keep you posted...

the bulbs are 9006 which is no problem. but these kits are the actual housing all sealed and everything that is a replacement for stock.

Xenarcs
Hey guys,
I'm getting the Sylvania Xenarc (X2010)kit for my Expedition, they make a headlight kit specifically for it. I know (through superford.org) one guy who has done it and he said the fit, finish and instructions are all top-notch, down to telling you wher to route/clip the wiring harness. I'd bet they have a few more things in the works, it may pasy to hold off to see how vehicle specific they get for the Lexi that didn't come with HID's originally.

Do the SilverStar bulbs run at a higher wattage and thus make you run the risk of melting your wiring harnesses?
How would they look behind the yellow fog lenses of the GS400? Would they make the yellow brighter?

The wattages are 60 & 70 respectively (low & high). As far as the look shining thru our yellow lenses, I'm unsure, but I feel they will be considerably brighter and not affect the yellow color much. I'm installing them this weekend. I'll keep you all posted..........

Cool, let us know how it goes TXSTYLE....
I'd definitely trust Sylvania (maker of many OEM bulbs) for their higher wattage bulb / blue tinted bulb applications than some ricer company....
