Default OEM HIDs - 2007 IS 350

I have OEM HIDs on my 2007 IS350, and over the weekend I noticed that my passsender side light was brighter than the driver's side. Has anyone else had this problem with the OEM HIDs? Any ideas why this is happening?

Should I need to replace them, would I be able to purchase after market HIDs or do I have to go with the Lexus OEM HIDs which I was quoted at around $200 for one bulb.

If you have OEM HIDS you can purchase D4S bulbs from various vendors on the site.

I purchased some Garax 6K from Mod-express.com and they work and look great. Although I will say the OEM HIDs that come with the car (Phillips make them i believe) look way sexier from a distance.

If you are going to replace them, I personally recommend getting the Garax 6000k bulbs. Very good quality and I like the color and output for the price (Under $100/pair). A lot of people use them on the 2IS.

Garax 6000k FTW.

Go to ijdmtoy.com and sign up for the mailing list.. get an instant 15% off coupon code. With priority mail shipping, total cost comes to $80 for the pair. Best deal around.
