i can't find any kind of aftermarket headlights for my 98 es300

wondering if the 96 headlights will fit??

any suggestions?

What is your problem? Do you need a replacement headlight unit and want something less expensive than OEM? Are you looking for just the bulbs?

Those 96 headlights will not fit your 98 Es300.

The only headlights that will fit your 98 are from the 97-01 Es300.

For the 00-01 ES's Lexus did produce an OEM HID type headlight. Try to find a used set on ebay. Look closely and you will see the difference in the design of the reflectors. They should come with HID bulb, auto leveling motor (not sure if you can get that working) and HID ballast built in. Might need a little wiring to get it working on yours but the headlights will indeed fit with no mods to any tabs or anything.

Here's one with HID: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-01-LEXUS-ES300-L-HEADLIGHT-W-HID-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQfitsZModelQ3aES300QQhashZitem4155cba320QQitemZ280612283168QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

Definitely the best way to go. Much better than just retro-ing a kit...
