New retrofit for me really soon. Waiting on 1 more item and we start building.

Lexus RX350/ tuned
Osram CBB d2s bulbs
Fresh black housings/ just gotta paint the reflector bucket.

The output completely destroys my Mh1 and can't wait to get them in

The Lexus projectors with clear lenses are some of the best in existence from what I’ve heard over on my Land Cruiser/Lexus forum. The photos show that the output is so stinking amazing that most of the guys who go this route don’t ever need high beams. Please keep us updated on your progress.

Do you have a part number for those RX350 projectors?

Ouch that’s harsh.


Sorry. That honestly came out wrong. I like to see guys experiment with really high end projectors and lenses and HID lamps because the output from what I’ve observed is absolutely stunning while maintaining a safe cutoff. The lenses on our stock projectors aren’t clear for one, and the projectors themselves aren’t optically Amazing in my opinion when you compare them to a Lexus LX570 projector etc. I should have rephrased that cause I truly didn’t have anyone in mind when I typed that. Thanks for catching that...

Nice to have a couple of guys who actually are serious about quality high end light output and are willing to do it properly.

Gotta have good lighting man! The RX350 can not be beat once it's tuned correctly. Needs to have a clear lens spaced correctly and secondary shield cut down. I'm also using Hella gen 3 ballasts out of an Audi so they have a max of 6 seconds to warm up.

I'll keep the forum updated as I move along with it.

I don't have a part number but a 2010+ lexus RX350 with hid (AFS or non AFS) is what your looking for. The AFS model is easier with a afs to non afs bracket but its not absolutely necessary.

You can also purchase these from lightwerkz.net. the do offer tuning (for a fee) because it can be tough to get right. I only recommended lightwerkz for the RX350 because they have a stock pile of the best lenses to use. The other retrofit shops have lenses that will work but not as well.

Quick mockup I did tonight. The projector still needs to be pushed back an inch or so, gotta trim the rear of the reflector more to get the projector bowl to sink in, reflector needs to be painted but I think it'll look pretty good
