Hey, im looking for HID for my is250 year 2010. YOur HID kit will be fine for this recent year right? and since it is 2010, will i need to install the HID harnass as well? my car didn't come with HIDs. I don't see any exsisting ballast when i pop the hood, so shouldn't be HID. What are your rates to Canada ontario?

I have an '03 IS300, and bought a kit from HID Extra. I didn't, however, buy the slim ballast. Any idea where/how I can make it fit near my headlights? Please help. Thanks!

Default Good, not exceptional

I bought my 6k kit from HIDEXTRA about a 1.5 yrs ago.
One side went out a couple months ago.
HIDEXTRA provides their kits at a nice price, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Bought my 2nd set of 5K kit in March, April, passenger side went out and HIDextra sent replacement part but now 2 fuse burnt and the ballasts were blown, I'm very disappointed with this product, this entire package lasted only 3 months or so and with problems such as passenger side won't open. I'm going with something moe reliable.

Yep, you get what you pay for. Spend a little more and get better quality.

Hi,

I installed my HIDextra light kit on my 2006 Lexus IS350, everything went OK I did have a hard time positioning the ballasts it sure would have helped if they were a little smaller.
But after finishing everything I wanted to test the lights inside my garage in the dark, and after I first turned the light on, the drivers side started to flicker a lot so I got out of the car to look at it closely it almost seamed
as if the bulb was moving up and down that lasted for like 20 seconds and than stopped.
I will do further testing and report back.

Has anyone else experienced this problem ?

Thank You
