I'd love to know how you got such good results with the Hikari's. I tried them in my stock headlights and had horribly scattered beam patterns.

Any tricks?

There are several different Hikari bulbs out there so I can only speak to the 2023 model.
But, making sure the bulb is seated flush and clocked/rotated correctly can make a big difference.

When you say clocked/rotated, what do you mean?

I used new 2023 bulbs, stuck them in the socket, aligned with the opening fitment pattern.

Is there something else I need to do?

The bulb and mounting collar can be oriented independently. It is possible to have the bulb mounted correctly while the led diodes are shining improperly in the projector.

I just put the best halogen bulbs I could in (based on input from Daniel Stern) and have zero regrets.

Tungsram +120 55w for H1 low beam
Toshiba HIR1 65w for high beam
Flosser 55w H3 Selective Yellow for fogs

This setup works great until I can find money to throw away on a SC430 retrofit.

Where'd you get the Tungsrams?

Is it the H1 or 9005 for a 06 LX470? Thanks for you help!

Hello

I was in search of an LED bulb for my 2006 Lexus LX470. I found it, and it is awesome. You will need to buy H1 Led bulbs and new dustcaps. This is what I bought from Amazon. It does not require any kind of cutting or flickering devices. I just hope the bulbs last.

H1 Led Bulb: (HIKARI 2020, H1 LED Headlight Bulbs)
Amazon product ASIN B07XKSWSF6
Dust Caps: Car Rover Headlight Seal
Amazon product ASIN B076Q9D52Z

Can’t seem to find these dust caps links anymore. Would you know the exact brand? Tried to find it no luck. Looks good btw.

I have to do something with my headlights.
A few weeks ago we were driving home at night and the headlights throw out just enough light as not to drive into a tree.
Surely it doesn't help that my headlights are all yellowed up.

I ordered the bulbs. Did you order dust caps? I plugged one in and there’s no way the OEM will fit. Thanks!

I just installed LasFit LEDs in my son's 2000 LX470. Very pleased.

Thanks for the photos and links. I ordered the same Hikari 2025 H1 bulbs and dust covers. You do have to take apart the LED Housing first and mount the base first then fit the LED on. I put the dust cover over the entire cover and that worked well. I had to make sure the LED bulb was centered like “ | “ inside the headlight as advised in the manual. Looks good so far!
