I have a 2005 LEXUS GS300 and about 18 months ago i one of my ZENON headlamps started to drop out during a journey.If I switched them off/on they came back on but would drop out later. I went to Lexus stoke and they wanted £600 for a new bulb which I thought outragous. The bulb is now failing all the time so I am faced with having to do something about it. Looking at the web this seems to be a known problem. I dont want to fork out £699 if there is a better/cheaper solution. Any help gratefully recieved.

Email Matt he is fantastic can even get you genuine Toyota/Denso Ballasts if that is what is wrong. Xenons are better replaced in pairs because they change colour a little as they get older.

Thanks but I've just ordered a pair of new bulbs @ £70 pair from www.hids4u.co.uk (08448842600) and if they fix the problem I will have saved a fortune over the lexus quoted price. They will take them back if for any reason they do not work.

I seem to remember a while back someone had exactly the same problem and it was the bulb so fingers crossed it will be the same result with yours.
Lexus prices are so ridiculous sometimes I think they work the prices out in binary.
How about £25.00 for a standard H4 head light bulb!

Ordered a pair of DS4 bulbs 6000K from HIDS4U.co.uk yesterday, they were delivered and fitted this morning and are brilliant at a total cost of £70 plus £10 for fitting. As it happens one of the old bulbs had blown but the other is OK. I wonder if Lexus would offer me the £600 they quoted for 1 new bulb for my spare! It shows an astonishingly high profit margin and has made me reconsider using Lexus again I'm affraid.

oone of mine was intermittent, turned out to be a little moister inside the cluster, unplugged the sidelight and and drove with the lights on to dry it out and been fine since
