Cami Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 I previously had a '01, and an '04 RX with HID. I just purchased a '04 GX (all with navi) and I can't tell if the vehicle has HID head lights. The RX seemed very bright and appeared to take a moment to "warm up" if you will. My GX was stolen from the port on arrival (back in '04) and I'm wondering these head lights were stolen and replaced with standard bulbs. Am I off my rocker or is there away to tell what I have and what I should have? Thanks...Cami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 No HID from the factory on the 04 or any other year. The GX comes standard with projection lense and halagen bulbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cami Posted December 22, 2006 Author Share Posted December 22, 2006 Ooooo thanks "G" man. You would be surprised how many Lexus employees didn't know the answer to this question. C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C You are so right, one salesman I talk to insisted that the GX had HID. Most people I talk to thinks the GX has HID because of the projector lens. On the other hand, one can install an after market HID for about 300 to 400 dollars. The OEM projector lens works very well with HID headlights.

denslexusgx470 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 The OEM projector lens works very well with HID headlights. You are totally correct. I've seen a co-4Runner owner who has an 06 with the projectors, and he installed a 6000k HID kit, looks beautiful. Looks like OEM except that it doesn't level. Made me actually a little jealous and am really thinking hard on whether I should do it or not. His only costed $250 and he says they're good stuff. I forgot the website but it's not xenondepot. Xenondepot.com is expensive though. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
