Default Need some help finding aftermarket headlights

I have a 2011 is250 with Hid’s and I wanted to upgrade the headlights to the newer style with the led strip on the bottom, is this possible? Every time I go online to look at aftermarket headlights it says they’re only compatible with the model years from 2006-2009 with halogen. Any recommendations?

Vland makes some LED headlights that will work on your vehicle. They aren't HID, but they are pretty bright. the design looks great and they have sequential turn signals that use the LED strip. I've installed them on my IS350 and they are easy to install and work very well. It's also a lot cheaper than trying to find aftermarket HID assemblies and bulbs. definitely worth looking in to.

With the vland headlights can we change the bulb color of day time running lights?

Maybe. If you are comfortable taking the headlamp apart, you may be able to, but I do not know for sure. Because they have the sequential turn that has a switchback, It may be more complicated than just swapping the LED strip inside. I would contact vland directly. I have heard that they may do some custom headlights on occasion. They would definitely be able to let you know if what you're looking to do is even possible. I think they look great the way they come and they are definitely bright. It's also a fairly easy install. I was able to install them in my driveway.
