I don't intend to swap between a Mk III and IV. I just want to replace UK-spec HID headlamps with EU-spec lights on a British Mk IV.
I thought the HID headlamps were an option for the 1999 V Mark IV (at least in the US, they were standard in Canada). Was it standard for the UK?
Lexus France gave me a quote for normal lights and for HID lights. I thus expected the wiring to be the same, with the possibility to install either ones. HID headlamps are 4 times more expensive than the normal lights, which tends to make me think that they include the ballast.
ACLex thinks this is indeed the case.
Just out of curiosity, how much have Lexus France quoted for the lights and do you have the part numbers?
By the way, the ballasts are indicated by part numbers 81107 and 81108 and everything marked in that box is included with the headlight.
