from what i've read the polargs are 10x a standard led and run about $35 so if the piaa is rated true then it would be almost twice as bright about twice the price. I've heard these being called mini HIDS because they output so much light.

$75 would be worth it if its true but I dont want to pay to find out.....

There are LEDs brighter than HIDs out there.. I saw them at Super Autobacs when I was in Japan.. and the price ranged from around $75 - 130 USD. They come with some kind of amplifier attached to a wire as well.

You can, you just need to insert it at a angle, because it's kinda big from all the LED's.

jinetix, car is looking hot bro!

finally got the clear es350 door lamp assemblies after 2 weeks of it being on backorder! got it at a toyota dealer cuz it was cheaper than the lexus dealer next door... paid $18.33 each. part # is 81230-47010. apparently it shares the same part as the lamp in the prius and i think earlier es models?

anyways.. this is what it looks like...

wow which dealer did you goto? i noticed that ALL dealers have different prices. i called about 5 of em and this one was the cheapest so i went with them. if you had posted that you had extra i woulda bought em off you! probably woulda gotten it sooner than the dealer too hahah
