I HAVE A LEXUS RX330 AWD (2005) WITH HIDS IN NJ. THE VEHICLE IS REALLY GOOD AND SO IS THE HEADLIGHTS. NO COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE RIDE AND LUXURY. BUT ITS DISAPPOINTING TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCES AND THE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS I AM HAVING FOR THE LAST 2 MONTHS. THE HID HEADLIGHTS WERE STOLEN TWICE AND I AM HAVING SCARY NIGHTS AFTER SPENDING 40K ON THIS LUXURY SUV. ONE OF THE BIG REASON WHY I WENT FOR RX 330 FROM THE OTHER BRANDS WAS THE KNOWN QUALITY OF SERVICE AND RELIABILITY OF THE LEXUS BRAND. BUT NOW I AM TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED. LEXUS SHOULD NOTIFY EVERYONE WHO HAS THE XENON HEADLIGHTS TO DO THE ENHANCED SECURITY FOR HEADLIGHTS. BUT THEY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL I CONTACTED THEM. MEANWHILE I CONTACTED LEXUS AFTER THE 2 THEFTS AND THEY INSTALLED THE DATA DOTS AND ANTI THEFT BRACKETS WHICH THEY SAY MAY PREVENT THEFTS. IT HAS...
