Can anyone recommend where to buy replacement headlights for my 2000 RX300? I want to upgrade to the 2001+ clear headlights. I found one in amazon and comes with all the bulbs -
What do you guys think?

Thanks

 

The reviews look good and it's a decent price. Amazon is so good with returns if you don't like them you can send them back. Take a before and after shot of the light pattern against a garage door or wall to compare. I bought a few of these aftermarket headlights from Amazon for other vehicles and while I wasn't upset with any build quality, one had a reflector light spread that was horrible.

 

Yeah... You always get what you paid for. So be very careful with install, as they normally use very cheap plastics and brackets break off easily. Also, there is no telling if it actually fits till the OEM one is removed and matched. I seen them missing brackets, holes not matching, slightest pressure "to make it work" and snap - then you can't return it.

 

I replaced mine with halogen bulbs but don't see much difference.

What DOES make a difference is the headlight lenses which were badly yellowed. The 3M headlight polishing kit works great and I repolish every 9-12 months or so.

 

x2 on the polishing kits. They work great, the ones with the drill attachment. I usually have to redo them twice a year and polishing/UV coating once a month in between.

All these headlights yellow over time. The aftermarket ones I've had turn yellow much quicker than factory headlamps (probably a factory UV/clear coat). It's incredible to me that they don't build them with gaskets and screws so that you can replace the clear plastic part on the headlight housing, rather than making it a single sealed assembly. The headlamp plastic needs to be replaced more often than the light bulbs.

 

I use the DDM tuning Hid bulbs just plug and play I also use their new Cree taillight bulbs red on red and the back up lights clear they are just amazing. DDM tuning in Huntington Beach CA and San Diego area.They also now have the new LED head lights words cannot describe how nice and bright they are their phone 714-901-5080 www.ddmtuning.com. I have been using their product now 5 years and no
problems they also have a great warranty. The tail light bulbs are as bright as the new cars tail lights great for safety and the back up lights light up like head lights great for backing up in the dark. My Lexus 2001 RX all the led bulbs are plug and play no hassle and no, I don't work for DDM just wanted to let everyone know how to make our night driving safe . I also use the yellow HID bulbs in my fog lights and
that really helps the head lights light up the road like the new cars.

 

I called my dealer and they said If I am not using an original part, it will void my factory warranty. Anyone knows if this is true for the logo door light?

 

Not sure how you'd still have a warranty on a first gen RX to begin with but if you did, aftermarket lights should only void warranty on lights and nothing else.

 

Thanks for the reply. I actually have 3rd generation IS 2017. I saw this has the most recent reply so just asking on this thread.
