I have a 1999 LS400 in the Netherlands that was originally imported from the US in 2000.

My right, passenger side, headlight is broken and I want to order on US car sites.

However I do not know exactly which one to pick.

For example on Go-part there are two different type and I can not see whta the backside looks like.

I have taken som pictures, can anyone help me what/where to order?

Regards,

Peter

"W/o High Intensity Discharge Xenon Lamps" means that the low beam headlights use halogen bulbs.

"W/ HID" means that the low beam headlights use "discharge" D2R bulbs.

Look at the front of your headlight lenses. The bulb type will be shown on the lens. If you see "D2R" on your headlight lenses, you need the "W/HID" ($199.95) headlight units.

Very few 1999 LS400 sold in the U.S. had halogen low beam headlights. Most had the more expensive HID headlights which were a $500 option or included in various option packages.

You may be better off getting one from the UK due to shipping costs and import duty as there is no import duty between EU countries.

I recently had to replace a head light on my imported 1994 LS400 and shipped from a UK dealer who is the official UK LOC dealer (ACLex) it only cost me around 170.00 Euros.
