Hi,
I have seen these square Triple Beam Headlights which would fit my 2017 IS300. Can anyone please help me out on where I can find them, also the contact information of a dealer that has them. I asked one other fellow, but all he said was Japan. Talk about being vague here. I asked him where in Japan. No answer.

Hi Can anybody tell me re the aftermarket triple led headlights sold on Japan Ebay for the 2017 IS 300 Awd F Sport Canadian version car would be compatible or safe to install or legal to install in my car? Any thoughts? My lexus service advisor told me that it would be illegal to change over to them for a Canadian car even though they are aftermarket parts used in Lexus IS cars in Europe and Japan.
The triple LED headlights people talk about on this thread is OEM and came on the car over there as factory.
Yes it may be illegal due to US DOT regulations (and Canadian variant of it) and also the cutoff line of lighting. In America the cops here wouldn't be able to tell no difference and i haven't been ever pulled over for Japan spec headlamps on any of my cars

Just make sure the uptick from the country you get the headlight from is the same as your home country. You don't want to be lighting the wrong side of the road.
Cars in their respective home countries have uptick associated with where their road signs are. On the US, it's on the right. So we have right uptick. Other countries will have left.

I've used JP-Carparts in the past for JDM parts (Subaru) that are rare in the US. They have a ton of Lexus parts and good diagrams.

The quad headlamps look great, but they are pricey!!! JP has them listed at $1861.36 per side, plus shipping. OUCH!!!!

Hi Defender15- I have an unmodified 17 and trying to fit tail lights of a 16. I started a new thread, which now I know was a mistake as I just realized there was already one on the topic. Any clue if I will face the same issue as you? Mine is a straight OEM swap and you mentioned you had a seibon trunk. Thanks for your help.

If you put 2016 tail lights on your 2017 you are gonna need the trunk from 2014 to 2016.

You only need 2014-16 tail lights + wires
My friend have 2014 and he change his tail light to 2017 by changing the tail light + wires
It's just a swap

Ok well good luck I tried already with 2 seperate trunks from 2014 to 2016 with pics and video on you tube and trunk housing is not deep enough to support the tail lights. If it works please post pics.
