I would go to stainless as well or i will sell you my old lines for $50 shipped.

Any bulb with a higher wattage bulb are words to stay far away from. Don't waste your money doing the highbeams ,you will never get you moneys worth out of them. What do you want more light or just the "white"look? PIAA bulbs are better than almost everything else but cost more than everything else. Silverstars are nice ,cheap and work.

Were the fuses you changed even blown?

your solenoid may be going.

lol Someone must have a very nice signiture.

Main question is why switch to a different brand? How much is the cost savings?

same thing as the other post. We have rules and they apply to everyone.

did you think you where not subkect to the same rules as everyone else? banned

alright guys i am going to close the thread as it is now officially going no where or doing anyone any good.

Just looked at the rest of the pics , it is one ugly car. Chrome fenders edging half the car has gucci fabric but not the back seats? Atleast he didn't waste the money on leather .

sounds like the same ones i recommended for the RX and ES's. wix and another company makes them and can be had for under $20. They both came with the magnet and bypass.

06gs430 no longer has them for sale.

I would check for sag before the seal as seals deteriorate at the same rate and would be similar on all doors.

For a 98-2000 LS i would use the money to go somewhere else or preferable a nice 2 tone suede inlay. But everyone has there own personal style and needs which is why among other things Lexus makes more than one car model. I would be interested in seeing the whole car , as to me if you go that far with the material you better have a whole lot more to complment it. Kind of like wearing wal mart shoes with a prada handbag. I wonder if it is knock off material as it would make it much more reasonable .

How bad is it? Corrosion? chipped? scratched? peeling?

I have a similar problem but mine does not sound as bad as yours. If i am reading your post right you have to almost lift the door up to completely latch it closed. The problem comes from the door being so heavy it wears out the hinge and pins.The only way to fix it is to buy new upper and lower hinges.The hinge pin area has been worn down as well as the pin causing the door to sag. One more good reason to always lube the hinges often and to not let the door swing all the way open stressing the pins especially. If you want to see the movement . Lift the door up while looking at the hinge and you will see it rock on the pin.

You may have a rod thrown on one of the doors. Pull back the carpet by the gas pedal and you will see the hvac system . You can see some stuff from the passanger footwell also. Make sure all the rods open and close the doors freely.

When you turn the key to start does the clock turn off? If it does then your ignition is not the problem. You probably have a low battery or a failing solenoid.

For all the posts you read did you notice what i found is the problem and the fix by cleaning it? You just might be able to get her running again with no more issues. Find a nice small filter like the ones i posted before as i would not reccomned the massive one lenore added.

12000k have almost no reflectivity so they look nice but have no output that the naked eye can use. It would be cheaper to buy a blue fog light rather than waste a good set of HID's with that high output. I have said it many times , fogs are a waste if they are halogen or HID based. I have a set of catz that cost me over $500 and they are btter than most out there. In real fog they are still useless no matter who makes them. I have oem benz bulbs rebased which are xenarcs which have a slightly more white/blue colour compared to the more yellow 4300 oem d2r or d2s. If you want a colour then 12000 will work . If you want improved vision then get 8000 which have a nice contrast. If you use halogens it will be blue but not the peicing purple that you get from a cutoff line of a nice projector lens. As no halogen can produce enough output to make anythign but a glow in that colour range. Best bet is to get a set of mini projectors with the sharp cutoff and retro a whole housing to your existing ones. It will give you the 12000 colour from every angle except head on. This would also give you max additional lighting goign forward also. If you keep your 4300 bulbs in the oem housing you are going to find they look old and yellow real quick with the contrast of a different K value.

Does mercury not need to be kept under pressure to keep it in a vapour form? Also if it is a liquid which under start up would jolt it enough to form a vapour to give the effect i wounder how much pressure the gas would cause? I am asking as i have no idea just a thought. The other thing hat i know is Phillips does not make any bulbs with mercury added. It would only be in the aftermarket which i would stay away from. there are many kits on the market and if it is not a rebased bulb to fit a Phillips patented base i would not buy it. Of the many other kits available they are made in Asia and are very low quality. Most people change bulbs yearly with them as well as ballasts. Phillips has the only patent, you will see Hella branded ballasts which are the same rebranded Phillips ones. They also have about 6 different gens or styles also. The best kit to me for durability is the gen 3 ballasts with 6000k bulbs .

more details needed. When you start the car does it seem to start then die? It may be your iacv search the ES forums for fixes.
