Default New Polarg M4

Just got the Polarg M4 in the mail today and decided to run outside and change the parking lights real quick in the dark.

First impression: Imo, they match up great with the stock HID low beams. It was really easy to install

The first pic is the stock ones. Second is M4 on the right.
The third, I just went and took some quick shots.

Also, I got so excited to replace the unwanted yellow lights that I seemed to have dropped one of the engine cover mount things somewhere in the engine bay. I have no idea where it went. I searched for half an hour and no luck finding it. It shouldn't cause me any problems, should it? No chance of it finding its way near the engine belts or stuff like that?

Man, those look great and match the stock HIDs perfectly.
Where and how much did you purchase them for?
Thanks!

Looks good. They seem to match the stock lows pretty well. Where'd you get then and how much?

I still have M4s. They do work well with the stock HIDs. I now have 6000k and they look yellow now

I've used M4s in multiple Lexus, very VERY happy with Polarg quality.

That does look good! I've been wanting to replace mine as well.

I wouldn't worry about one of the plastic engine mount cover. There are so many that hold that cover in place and if you really want to get a few extra, I'm sure they don't cost too much.

I found an LED that matches the OEM HID perfectly. I posted it in the 2GS forum a while back.

I'm not selling these or anything, just sharing with you guys since I've tried countless LEDs and Polarg bulbs and these are by far the best match.

Are you saying that they match the stock HID's from a 2GS or 3GS?

Check it out.

Well the 2GS and 3GS OEM HID is pretty much the same color so it should match.

I also bought the LEDs Chrispy bought and I loved the look but they didn't last and blew after a few months. So I went back to the Polarg M4's.
