My friend just installed these lights on his ISF and mine yesterday.... light output is amazing and the brights are an infinite amount of times better than the Vlands brights overall this is a solid upgrade to the Vlands!! The turn signal sequence the Amber coloring and the startup sequence with the blue LED are all cherries on top 😎....HC Motion did their homework and improved on the vlans in every possible way IMO
Nice! I almost got these but when I looked they were $700 and would take 2 months to get here, and the VLANDs took a few days. Running those so I can fix my HID issues
@@TunerwithKids Probably 😂 Oh well, they still work and look good. My 2011 lights have broken tabs too, hard to fix if the JB Weld keeps breaking. HC Motion will be the next trend for the IS for sure
@@TunerwithKids I hope so haha. I was planning on buying some VLAND’s soon after seeing other Breakwater Blue owners with them. I like the additional stuff on the HC Motion’s a lot but there is a decent price difference between the two brands.
Great video. Auto levelling can work on our 2007s but you need to replace the light computer with a 2010 or later model and repin the connector. (You will lose AFS horizontal movement). It would be worth a try to retain the auto level
Too much work to do that. The motors they use aren’t the the fast moving ones. I think these are for the slow manual leveling on the truck/vans/BRZ-FRS
@@TunerwithKids I don't think it's as much work as you think. I was planning on doing it (and I'm pretty lazy), I'll try to find the link to a helpful thread on the Lexus forums
They look great! I’m still more a fan of the all black Ones I got with the clear reflectors, but the chrome adds a dope aspect. I really enjoy that there are more custom options with these than the Vlands so that even years from now when everyone is running these like they do with the vlands, there will at least be distinguishable and unique ways to rock them. Great video!
Yo my man, are these still your current headlights? How is it holding up? You still recommend them? My bad for too many questions but I'm in the market for a replacement headlights for my 2010 is 250. I prefer the og vlands seems like its a simpler and cleaner look for the 2is gen. But Ive been hearing that HC motion has better light output which is more important for me. I would really appreciate your feedback man when you get a chance. Keep up the awesome vids great work! 👍
The new HC and VLAND version have eta better output. The OG VLAND were not great in output. I’m an old school HID projector guy so I like my output and cutoffs like on my IS300 retrofit project.
Cool animation on them. I feel they're as ricey as the Vlands. I went with Depo V2, and am super happy with them. I can also change the bulbs when they go out...
Follow up. I installed these headlights 6 months ago, barely drive the car and it's kept in the garage. I just installed a carbon fiber hood and notice that the right headlights animation stop working, but every thing else works. Going to try to contact HC motion and hope they can help me or warranty it. Just frustrating since I sepnd and took my time to put everything together and I have to do at a minimum a partial year down
Hello! Great vid! I just installed mine today, but the pass side low beam/highbeam lights dont work but DRL/blinker does. How did you test the low beams? I contacted HCmotion but they say one of my grounding pins is bad, but I have no clue how to diagnose. Thanks!
How are the seals for these? The VLands were terrible in this regard where water would leak into the housing and destroy the circuitboard. Did you need to touch up with permaseal for this particular headlight?
I have a Lexus style triple beam headlights for a 2023 Toyota Camry XSE that also has the triple beam demon feature (triple beams can switch to red… however one of the beams when I switch to demon mode doesn’t come on (passenger side). Please advise how to fix???
Do you have any picture showing witch wire are for the DRL /RGB hook i neet to know so i can add a wire with a switch directly to the battery so that in the carshows i can leave them on without draining my battery on acc
@@TunerwithKids Bluetooth would be sick! Is there a way to force the DRLs to be amber without losing the functions of the turn signal/emergency lights?

@@VietnamAndKoreanFlashbacks can you post link of who did it? It might be the other ones, they look similar with these HC motions but the DRL on those is lower and eyelids can fit and they also look more like the 2021 original is350 ones

Hello guys, i saw on the headlights HCR PL 25 "E9" 23199 mark, which is certified in Spain. So i could use them in all of Europe legally now because of the "E9" marking. Btw im in Germany. Does anyone know are this Fake certifacte marks or does HCMOTION rly did this legal in Europe? VLAND never did such things, i drive with Vlands but its a high risk in Germany so if anyone can tell me these are legal now i buy me these instead :D
Literally plug in play I just got mine installed like 5 minutes ago but my blinker flickers fast and it doesn’t illuminate all the way when the blinker go on jus the little bit that’s all. Any help or idea on what I can do to get them to blink all the way? Thanks love the videos
Yea I agree the eye brow DRL is weird but I think the output will be much better. I’ll put the meter on the output and compare to the recent VLAND and BiLED retrofit I took.
Preorder. Their regular price is $700 now. May drop if they get enough supply and start stocking in USA. But RN it’s all in production and shipped express from China.

Dude, I want to do this on my ISF, do you have pics? Any programming needed?
New install video coming next week.
No programming needed sorry I just saw the message yeah I have pics I could send to you
Nice I just canceled my vlans for these there way more modern!
Yes please do especially a review on night time driving compared to the Vlands
Love your videos as a 2010 IS owner!
This seems like a option is you have the 3is or the 4is bumper conversion looks funky on a stock 2is rather than the vlands

Ive been excited for this one 🤣
Those are nice. I got the other one like this one but the check arrow is longer and only turn signal as subsequent.
Nice video, very interested to see how these preform at night compared to the Vlands. I've been eyeing these up for a while.
vland also sell those now
I am just waiting on a long term reliability of these headlights.

I hope these lights are brighter than the vlands. Can't wait till you make the installation and comparison on how bright these lights are!
Yes with all three projectors hopefully they are better optics and LED chips as those have advanced in the past 3 years since VLAND came out.
Love these waiting for mine to come in 🔥🔥🔥
Drink every time he says VLANS

Nothing. But I don’t park outside and haven’t really had it thru heavy rain or water.
Install brotha
Maybe next week
Is HCmotion and Vland the same? I noticed Vland has the EXACT same version of this.
Seems like they are copying each other design.
Hi is it possible to replace the bulbs of the low beam? What is their life expectancy
no...everything is sealed LED.
Hi, i have a blue ISF same as in video. Could you install it for me? Assuming you are in Sydney.

Probably cover most of the DRL.

Pull the AFS fuse under driver kick panel.

is it possible to disable the animation?
No just part of the flashing.
@@TunerwithKids oh ok, I think these look great, it's just the animation that I feel gives it away as after-market.

Resistors not high enough to stop hyper blinking? Need to install an LED relay. I have recent videos on that.
Get the LED relay with the turnable knob
Why don’t they have this for the 3GS
GS isn’t an “enthusiast” car.
Sounds like laziness to me I hope one day there will a channel based on 3GS after market parts like to 2is.
great review. Are you as scared to take off your masterpiece front grill as I'm thinking?! tedious
Naw. Front is easy to remove. Even easier now that the lift is up and running.
@@TunerwithKids Nice!

vlands look way better, these dont match the flow of the front end on a 2is and just looks awkward and as if the “eyes” were perched all high
