Hi again everyone, I received those bulbs yesterday and installed them. I couldn't be more happier with the results, there is such good visibility I barley need high beams, They appear to be a yellow/white colour when driving but looking upon the car from the outside of about 10+ metres away they are a pure white with a hint of blue, Here is a picture I took of only the low beams on, http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/gallery/image/4947-img-2856/

I actually just purchased from this guy, they all seem to be the real deal and has a shop too if you look at his other listings.I've been in contact with him past few days asking questions about lighting for the aurion. So far I've changed my head lights to Phillips ultra vision and purchased LED parkers from him. Still waiting on parkers to arrive though. Only posted just yesterday. Thanks everyone for your opinions on this matter, it's shocking how many fakes are out there, I've heard that Phillips aren't all that bothered to pursue the problem. Silver-Aurion, great to hear that someone on here has had dealings with this seller, I looked at his page on facebook and looks like he has a great store, many people seem to be more than pleased with his products and service, so I decided to purchase them, I'll post on here after Iv'e installed them to let everyone know if they are any good :) Also, I found out that apparently genuine Phillip D4S 6000K HIDs will have a red-like salt inside the glass and a pearl-blue rod on the outside whereas many fakes will have a white-ish salt inside and a flat blue or even a grey rod on the outside (This is only regarding 6000K bulb as far as Im aware), I hope this helps anyone looking into new 6000K HIDs :)

Hi, I'm purchasing a pair of Xenon Hid bulbs for my 2007 aurion presara but I've heard there are heaps of fake phillip bulbs on the market, Toyota want $490 for each bulb which I find very expensive, I found this eBay seller who claims his are genuine, they are $350 for a pair Does anyone believe these may be fakes?? Here is the link http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Genuine-Philips-Ultinon-6000K-D4S-Xenon-HID-Bulbs-Toyota-Lexus-RX-IS-GS-86-GTS-/121111786203?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c32d332db&_uhb=1

Hi guys, I have a stock 2007 Aurion Presara that has the standard 17inch rims on it, I want to change them to the Roh Mantis black (in picture below) they are available in 17inch but they don't look as nice compared to 18 or 19inch, I have no clue when it comes to tires so I was wondering if anyone knows what is the largest size I can go too and if so what else may have to be modified? And the costs of doing so? Cheers,

Hey everyone, Okay so this is now a long story so I'll try and make it short, About 6 months ago I bought my car (2007 Toyota Aurion, Presara), everything on it was fine, the lights were great until about 3 months ago when the right side low beam (HID) started failing (Note: These D4S low beam bulbs are apparently the original ones that came with the car, so genuine toyota bulbs), at first I thought it was blown, but I could turn the light switch off and back on again and the right side low beam would work again for about 4 minutes than fail again, So I thought perhaps the bulb just needs replacing, about 2 weeks after that the left one started doing the same thing? So I decided to get new bulbs, however, I went too toyota and they told me it would cost $550 per bulb, I just couldn't afford it at that time, nor would I want to pay so much for a light bulb anyway, so I bought a pair of Phillips D4S 8000K (2000K higher intensity than the genuine bulbs) I installed them myself as it is a relatively easy task, This is what confuses me, with the new bulbs installed the right low beam was still failing! But the left one was working perfectly! I took it to toyota, told them all of this and said to me they won't do anything till I replace them with genuine toyota bulbs... So I took my car to an auto electrician, he says the problem is that the right ballast needs replacing, but I am confused as to why the left one had the problem and now is working? He tells me that even if I replace it, it may just fail again in 3 months time? Anyway does anyone have advise on this, what to do etc? Hopefully Im not the only one who has had this problem? Cheers,

So my low beam light bulbs (type: d4s) blew the other day and I'am considering of upping the colour intensity, the stock d4s are 6000k (white) and I can't decide between 8000k (iceberg blue) and 10000k (brilliant blue) anyone one here have any experience on this?

So I can't just replace the blown bulb, I have to replace the entire assembly? I would've thought the HID bulb would just click into the back of the turning headlights mechanism?

Nah the Presara do have the HID/Xenon bulbs in them, when I turn mine one they're like a bluish-white colour

He's correct. My car has Halogen projectors. Sportivo ZR6 and Presara both have HID projectors. ATX - Halogen Touring (mine) - Halogen Sportivo SX6 - Halogen Prodigy - Halogen Sportivo ZR6 - Xenon (known as HID) Presara - Xenon (known as HID) Is that true for 2008 pre face lift models? Im pretty sure mine are halogen Pretty sure it is correct, mines a 2007 Presara and it has Xenon/HID projectors

Don't think that would be a good idea, as the Aurion has halogen projectors not HID projectors True but the Presara model does have xenon/HID projectors unlike the AT-X models

But because my low beams are already Xenon HID that probably wouldn't make sense? I need to find the same bulbs but for cheaper price?

Aw yea I know what you mean know, well mine has a 6 speaker system and I know that the 2009 facelift models have a 10 speaker system so perhaps they have the same amp? Would it be possible to just wire a sub into the JBL's amp?

Okay so last night I went out to my car and the left low beam light is out and the right is starting to flicker, called Toyota today and they told me its $550 for one light bulb and that I will need two cause the right one is about to die, so that's $1100!!! For light bulbs!!! Called another electronic shop and he reckons he can installed a bluish white HID bulb for about $50-$70 what are your thoughts on this? Anyone else had this problem with their low beams on the Presara models?

Yea they are JBL, that's what I mean, the sound is actually pretty damn good, just sort of needs a but more of a punch?

Wow, this is quite expensive, thankyou I have heard the alpine systems are really good but I was just wondering am I able to keep the standard head unit as it is the say nav type in the Presara model? And just run an amp to power the new speakers to it? Just can't afford a new head unit is all?

Thankyou very much for that :) very informative, I think if I'm going to replace the back speakers I might as well put in a decent amp, front tweeters, new speakers and a sub, thanks again

Hi I was going through a post on here and they were talking about adding aux inputs into the head unit of their aurions, some one there said that their sat nav units had a auxiliary input on the back of their head unit, I was wondering if this was it (bottom right hole in picture below the white cord) if so how do you activate aux mode, I've tried clicking mode on steering wheel and clicking disc but still nothing?

Hi I have also pulled out my navigation head unit and also found the aux in connection, I have installed the cable but how did you turn on the aux on the stereo to play music through the cable?

Hi, I have a 2007 Presara and I am thinking about upgrading the stereo system as the rear speakers are very distorted when I start to turn the volume up around 35, I'm so confused about stereo systems tho, I want aux/USB connectivity, better bass response and abit more clarity, I was thinking of only installing a small sub to begin with as I don't have too much money to spend at this moment but I've heard I would need an amp for this, not sure what amps exactly do and how expensive they are but what are your opinions on this matter? Cheers

Thankyou, I've just ordered that tape :) those led's look awesome! We did you get them? The ones on the headlight

Thankyou very much for the diagram, very helpful :) Just wondering, what could I use to stick these led strips to the chrome part above the fog light? Adhesive tape? Perhaps just glue, I don't want them dangling around and not notice haha :)

Thankyou for that, very helpful!! :) I'm not to concerned about it being illegal cause as you said having fog lights on is illegal anyway, so I'll just turn them on when I want I think :) Could you please assist me in how to install a relay fuse, the wires on these lights are very short too?

Awk I didn't know this is illegal, I'm just wanting white-ish blue ones but those proper ones look good :) thankyou for the help, appreciate it

Hi, I have a 2007 Toyota Aurion Presara sedan and I have recently bought two led strips to place just above the fog lights, is it safe to wire these led lights into the existing fog lamp connection and run both? I'm worried about a fire? But I have tried this and they seem to run fine, and the plastic on the is well away from the lamp, Is there any precautions I should take like fire proof tape? Here is what they look like :)
