Im really not sure. I know they are HIDS and they are supposed to have a green tint but I dont notice any green tint on it. Is it a light green or a very visible green?

Welcome to the family =D.. I remember when I bought mine, nothing like driving it home to norcal from so cal at 2 in the morning =). Take care of her, and it'll take care of you. Claybar with paint cleaner, polish, and wax and you'll be set to go. Enjoy!

Sounds good, man. Once you spend more time on here, you're going to change your mind real quick.

Hi everybody- this is my FIRST post. I recently just agreed to purchase the first year GS430... Tan w/ Tan.. LOADED. I'm very excited !! (didn't even pick it up, lol)

ANYWAY- I was wondering the same thing about the headlights? Which GS models (if any?) had the greenish-tinted headlight housings? I dont' think the '01 that I'm picking up has them either...

?

When the headlights look a little "hazy" like that- is that on the OUTSIDE of the housings? Polish will solve that? I hope so...

Yes, it's on the outside. Any polishing compound will work...even toothpaste.
