i think it's asking if you have OEM HID or standard 9006 for headlamps. High Intensity Discharge?

the only difference between the one with hid or non hid is the color of the output. If your car was equipped with HIDs then your foglights were yellow, if they were halogen then the fogs were white. I believe that this is the reason for the question. Now if you have white fogs then u order the non hid if they are yellow then U order the hid ones.

81211-30233 Right without HID
81221-30213 Left without HID

The other ones are the what they basically sell as fully packed, meaning it comes with the bulb and screws from my understanding.

vlad, i thought ALL 2001+ gs300/gs430's are FACTORY equipped HID'S and yellow fogs.
havent seen a 2001+ without a setup like that (im saying this as the link the op used from sewell is saying its from a 2004 gs300)

Brian, from my understanding on option structure for the 2nd gen GS only the 430s came standard with HIDs, on the 300s it was an option. My friend has a 2003 GS3 with no HIDs and white fogs.
