HB4 SMD LED Bulbs
HB4 SMD LED Bulbs
P.Lindblom That's correct. I forgot about that one. The first thing I would do is to test the smd lights to see if they work or not, but I suspect they do. If you've got two wires and any 12V source you can just press the wires against the pins in the light plugs and see if they light up. If they don't, swap the wires around.
Good idea
Will report back.

And the other guys are right, for some reason Lexus/Toyota decide to wire + and - a different way round to everyone else on the lights so you will need to swap the wires over for them to work.
EDIT: Just read you said they do NOT have the metal collar, so ignore that bit. The rest still applies though

PS Patrik it's polarity not phase
Close!!
Most Toyota plugs you can remove the pins using a jewellers screwdriver, might be easier to swap the pins round inside the connector than altering the bulbs? If it does turn out to be polarity related. This won't have any downsides, normal bulbs will still work as before.

You was correct Toyota have their plugs wired back to front i tested the buls using some small terminals and some twin core and they lit up, now just need to decide whether to modify the wiring which in term shouldnt cause any real issues as normal bulbs arent polarity consuious or attempt to reomve the pins and swap them over.
I know which is the easier to attempt... lol
And neither will be done now as im too tired:blink:
Thanks all !!

06-10-2018, 01:38 PM #15i tried to get the pins out of my fog light bulbs when i jdm styled them as one wire was short and pulled the wire out of the plug, just easier to cut the wires and use crimp connectors them use some heat shrink to make them water tight, that way if you ever go back to a old bulb just swap the crimp conectors back to the norm way

There's loads of 9006/HB4 on ebay but nothing better than your run of the mill xenon bulbs that offer a better beam.
Getting bored of my bulbs now as i really want a crisp looking tint to them without fitting the HID's.
