Replacement Hid Lights

[Harold]

My Harrier lights were misting up and filling with heavy condensation and tried everythting to seal them but no luck.Bit the bullet and ordered two RX300 MK1 headlights- only one option on their computer.So seemed straight forward.Cost £225 all in When I went to install them found my Harrier has HID lights and the Mk 1 only came with standard type of lighting.

Lexus tell me they cannot get hold of any others. The new units fit OK and I was wondering if anyone has any experience of there being a problem of not having HID lights as quite happy to have "standard " lights.Better than water logged ones.Does anyone know if I can just wire the new ones up. Thanks.

As I delayed fitting them after getting them on the 6.11.2007 due to poor weather etc. Lexus said they might not be able to take them back also no other way of getting identical OE units for the Harrier so might be only option.

Just an update managed to fit some RX300 MK 1 lights @ £120 each but due to the dipped beam connector not being compatible with new headlamp bulb required (HB4) after some effort found some BMW connectors which allowed the conversion to be done in a neat way.(approx £10) No help from Lexus or Toyota on this other than saying they could sell me a loom???.BMW dealer most helpful and as had dismantled the lights arranged propmpt delivery within 48 hours. Most impressed.

Checked with Toyota and OE lights for this vehicle are £550 + vat each.

Removed road wheel,front grill and front portion of the wheel liner to gain access which more time consuming than anything else.
