Ok firstly, what kinda bulb is the IS300 use? Because if its not H1, ur not putting them in projectors.
Secondly, the more blue you get, the worse off you are with visibility, legalness. You go as blue as that celica, you wont be able to see in the rain. Addendum: I have 8000K, they are a white with purple tint, and VERY bright. Then again I dont drive my car in the rain, so having the purple is tolerable. Alot of ppl say that going over 6000K is pointless because they arent bright but I find my lights more than bright enough.

what do you mean not the headlights just the low beams? Unless its 1 single bulb for hi/lo they usually dont put HID in the high beams. -------------------- |

Yeah, well keep in mind that with the stock celica headlights, they wont look nearly as good cuz we dont have clear glass. And H1 is such a rare bulb, I doubt that those will fit in projectors.

I'd say get the projectors they look so good even when they're not on. People notice them to, and most don't even have celica's
