Hi there
I've just got my first GS300 Sport, Super condition, but a few issues need sorting:
The bootlid gas struts are shot. Does anyone know where I can get ones?
Also what's the type number for the dipped headlamp bulbs, current ones are really poor, any recommendations?
Thanks to anyone who can help
Sam

Can't help with the struts but dip bulbs are HB4/9006. I would recommend one of the many hid kits available. I have a 6000k set in mine, no standard bulb even comes close to how the hids perform.

Even better with an HiD conversion, which if done correctly can pass for an oem installation, as you have the manual headlamp adjuster and headlight washers already that you must have to make the setup legal.

Thanks for your help Guys
I think I'll go for the HIDs. This cars 'worth it' I still cannot believe the condition it's in.
I'll keep you posted on the lights and the struts.
