Driving in Spain - Headlights
Conor E posted a topic in Lexus NX300h / NX200t / NX350h / NX450h Club
Hi Guys, Sorry if this has already come up before - I couldn't find anything specific on the NX. I will be driving to Spain in June with my NX 300h for the first time. I will be getting a ferry directly to Spain so no driving through France. I wondered if anyone could advise as to whether the NX has flat beams and doesn't need a deflector sticker, or if there is a kick up on the left, which would require a sticker to prevent it? Many thanks in advance! - Conor -
Blurring/hazing headlights Is300h 2014
Ken83 posted a topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
Hi All, I've noticed the headlamps (the clear casing) on my 2014 IS300h are becoming hazy. It's worse at the top but seems to be working its was down. It's surprising as its only 8 years old and I have a 12 year old Mercedes CLC as well which has totally clear headlamps. Not sure if the spray of screen cleaner you get when you first clean the windscreen is causing this or this is just what happens at 8 years. If anyone else has this problem on their IS300h or knows how to get rid of it permanently or for a good while at least, please let me know as its likely to make the car look quite aged as it goes on. Cheers Ken -
Hey there, I've got a GS300 from year 2009, the facelift, and while I have Xenons (D4S, 4300K from what I can find), the high beams are good old halogen bulbs. I've gotten them out, and they are HIR1 12V 65W from Toshiba. I can't find those, but there are Osram alternatives. Now, I would like to get a spectrum that's closer to the ones of the xenon, so I have the same "spectrum of light." Osram Cool Blue Intense HIR2 bulbs seem to fit what I'm looking for. The Cool Blue Intense group spectrum is up to 4200K, I am not sure if the HIR2 bulbs indeed come with 4200K, I need to research on that. Power input is 63W, nominal wattage is 55W, I guess that's fine. Now, I am not sure, would HIR2 fit HIR1? I am not very well educated and knowledgable if HIR1 / HIR 2 ETC are different "holes", i.e. you can't fit Apple charging cable on a Samsung, or there's something else? I've read that HIR2 come with lower amount of lumens, the example above comes with 1875 while HIR1 with some 2300 lm. Philips also has a HIR2 bulb, 4200 K, 1350 lm, and as per the website, it's suitable for both low beams and high beams, so I guess there's a high likelyhood for the Osrams to be the same? I'll be thankful for any input on that matter and topic. Looking to refresh how the car looks. Thank you. -

Hey Guys, I bought one of those headlight restoration kits and it worked wonders on my IS today. Only took about 10 minutes and I think it is worth it 🙂

Over the years, people have regularly asked whether of not you need headlight converters, spare bulb kits, and other items when travelling to France. There is NO requirement to carry spare bulbs when you drive in France. You MUST, however, use headlight converters, unless your car has a flat beam - which is the case for all current Lexus models as well as for the previous gen RX300/350/400h/450h. You SHOULD switch off AFS. In addition, you MUST carry a triangle, and at least one high vis vest. It is recommended that you carry one per passenger. You MUST display a GB sticker at the back of your car, unless it is built into your number plate. It is recommended that you carry at least one single-use, NF approved breathalyser (they are cheap and available from Amazon): you should be able to produce one - if asked - but not having one does not carry a penalty. (It used to be a compulsory requirement, but for reasons I cannot remember, the law was relaxed). Importantly, radar detectors are illegal and you WILL get fined if you carry one, even switched off. If you have a portable SatNav that shows the location of speed cameras, this facility MUST be switched off. Your Lexus built in system will not show camera locations in France. See: http://www.euroadlegal.co.uk/country/france.html (other websites are available, but I have found - after checking with the French Consulate during a recent visit - that this one is particularly accurate.

Hi, new member and sorry if this has been brought up before, if it has and some kind sole could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. One of my headlights kept going out after anywhere between 2 and 10 minutes of being on, so I replaced it. Worked fine until last night when both went out after only a few minutes! Not good at night. They do come on, but now only for a very short time. Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks. -
Got an intermittent but frequent problem with my IS200 The headlights come on and the relay box by the battery buzzes, even with no key in the ignition Only way to stop it is disconnect the battery Don't get buzzing when lights are switched on Had a couple of auto electricians look at it without success Relay changed - no effect, no water in relay or fuse area, steering column switch seems ok Any suggestions welcome

Hi All, I have a RX450h 2009 Premier with the LED headlights. Does anyone know what the section marked in red is actually for? Can this section be wired to be constantly on so as to be used as a DRL and if so what are the wiring colours that supply the LED in there? The headlight is supp;ied by a block connector with the following wires, L/Blue, Black, White/Black, Brown, Gray The side light is supplied separately as is the turn signal.

Hey all, I was wondering whether the automatic headlight setting should only switch on the main beams. In my case, it does not switch on the low beams. Is this how it actually works or does my car have an issue?

My IS250 SE-L is supposed to have AFS but I'm not sure they're working. AFS is enabled in the menu system but I can't see any change in beam pattern when driving along winding country lanes at night. On startup, my headlights self-level - they go up and down, but there's no side to side movement - should there be? -
Does anyone know if/when full LED headlights will be fitted to the IS in place of the current HIDs? LEDs are available on all other Lexus models, and also on the IS outside the UK, and given that it is now Lexus' best seller over here, it seems odd that it is not yet available with LED headlights...

Hi, I'm trying to find a headlight projectors replacement for my IS220d (2007). The reason is that the transparent cover became yellow with the time and some small cracks in the corners, it doesn't look well. It looks like there is no way of replacing the outer shell itself, so I've got to replace whole the assembly that is quite expensive. So far search for IS220d headlight projectors wasn't very successful and I'm always getting the parts for IS250 and 350 models. Just wonder are these compatible with is220? In fact this is not the only search for parts that comes up with IS225,350 results instead of requested model that makes me think that all of these are interchangeable, or am I wrong? -
I have an RX 450 Premier, from 2013. I would like a difinitive answer as this seems to get asked about a lot but no-one ever gives a full explanation. So there are two questions: 1. Do I have to do anything to my headlights to adjust them from driving in the UK, to France? and, because I now believe the answer to the question above is 'No', 2. How come? What is it that is different from the past? Does the SatNav know I'm in France and adjusts automatically, or is the light no longer pointing to the roadside, or is it something else? Thanks for any answers, PB -
Dear all I have a LS430 2003 and need headlights. i use to live in south of France and had fitted french headlights by Lexus France, but back in the UK now and want to fit UK headlights. i have fitted stickers that changed the direction of the headlight beam and this got me through the MOT, but i want to have proper standard lights. i have found it impossible to find anywhere to buy a set of heatlights even second hand. now do i need the complete unit or will just changing the Glass change my light beams from right to left. the car is a right hand drive and the original head lights were lost many years ago. can any body help in my quest. i know that lexus dealer near me can supply the llights but at great expense and I would like to get them cheaper if i can before going to the dealer. thanks in advance

I have recently purchased a Lexus IS 250 SE-L – 2009. It is fully loaded with all the extras and drives well. I recently went out in it one evening and used the windscreen washers and as the headlamps were on the headlight washers came on as well. When I got home, I noticed the washers had not gone back into the bumper. I took it back to the garage and they thought it was to do with the pressure of the washing system but will investigate further. The manually pushed the washers back in and advised not to use the windscreen washer at night. Is there a simple solution to this or will they have to replace the headlight washer motor – under warranty? -
Good evening ladies and gents, I have recently purchased a 2001 Lexus IS200 Sport. I'm having the dreaded headlight issue. Passenger side low beam doesn't work but the high beams work. I just checked to see if I have power at the fuses in the fuse box and I don't. I also don't have power at the headlight connector. I have been looking on every forum I can find but haven't been able to find a fix. PLEASE HELP!!!

Can anyone help further? We have the headlight problems as others have after having had a new windscreen fitted a while ago. This is what we have had done by an auto electrician and we still have the problem, he has been tearing his hair out, and has not charged us a penny as it has beaten him!. we are selling the car and need it fixed. Changed relay, changed mother board (from a breakers yard), cabin filter checked, all wiring checked on drivers and passenger side. Taken note of all comments on this forum. Has anyone got any further ideas on this? As we would appreciate all comments. Has anyone got the headlights on a separate switch to the sidelights and bypassing the auto switch? Thanks for any help
