OEM Part Number: confirm via VIN — aftermarket LH Hella 1ZT 009 631-311 / RH Hella 1ZT 009 631-321

Accuracy note: Covers the Lexus CT200h (2011-) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Headlights are sold by side (passenger / nearside = LH, driver's / offside = RH on a UK car) and by lamp type — halogen, xenon (D1S / D3S) and LED or full-LED units are not interchangeable, and DRL, cornering and levelling options change the part number again. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand; genuine numbers are shown only where a listing quotes one. Check the lamp type and traffic side (UK right-hand-traffic units, not LHD) against your VIN, and expect xenon / LED and adaptive units to need levelling adjustment or coding after fitting.

Passenger side (LH / nearside) headlight — aftermarket	Hella 1ZT 009 631-311 (bi-xenon D1S, with DRL function, dynamic bending light, bulbs included, no ballast); TYC 20-17416-06-9 (LED, electric levelling, motor included); Alkar 2743523 (LED, PY24W/H4 listed, electric levelling motor included); Prasco LS7024904 (LED, electric levelling); TYC 20-0390-05-2 (halogen H1/H7, electric motor); Abakus 550-1130L-LD-EM (halogen H1/H7, electric, no bulb)
Driver's side (RH / offside) headlight — aftermarket	Hella 1ZT 009 631-321 (bi-xenon D1S, with DRL function, dynamic bending light, bulbs included, no ballast); TYC 20-17415-06-9 (LED, electric levelling, motor included); Alkar 2744523 (LED, PY24W/H4 listed, electric levelling motor included); Prasco LS7024903 (LED, electric levelling); TYC 20-11777-05-2 (halogen H15/H7, electric motor); Abakus 552-1124R-LD-EM (halogen H7/H1, electric, no bulb)
Bulb types	dipped H7, main H1 (halogen units); H15 daytime running; H11 and D1S (bi-xenon); indicator PY21W or PY24W; sidelight W5W; H4 on basic units
Genuine (OE) numbers quoted	None quoted in catalogue listings — order genuine units against your VIN
Fitment notes	Halogen, bi-xenon and LED units are all listed; the bi-xenon Hella units carry dynamic bending light and the LED units have electric levelling, so confirm the trim before ordering. Several listed units carry other-vehicle year tags, so check fitment against the car's headlight type.

A Genuinely Important UK Rule Worth Knowing Before You Buy — Lexus CT200h Headlights

If your CT200h has factory-fitted halogen headlamp housings, converting them to fit LED bulbs is treated as a definite MOT failure under the current inspection manual — this isn't a grey area or a minor advisory, since a housing designed for halogen doesn't distribute an LED bulb's light output correctly, which can genuinely dazzle oncoming drivers. If you want a genuine LED upgrade, the correct route is a complete headlight unit designed for LED from the factory, not a bulb swap into an existing halogen housing.

Dipped-beam H11 bulb change

Before you buy: matrix LED, adaptive, and cornering headlight systems often require electronic coding to the car after a unit swap, even for a genuine like-for-like replacement — a headlight that isn't recognised by the car's electronics can trigger warning lights or fail to auto-level correctly. Check whether your specific trim has one of these systems before assuming a straightforward bulb-in, bulb-out job.

Lexus CT200h Headlights: What It Does

Inside the Lexus CT200h's headlight unit sit the main and dipped beam bulbs, or LED/matrix modules on higher trims, precisely angled to light the road ahead without dazzling oncoming drivers. Many current units also fold the daytime running light and front indicator into the same housing, which complicates both the part number and any repair.

Standard trims	Halogen or Bi-LED (standard full LED with automatic high beam) depending on model year
F Sport	Genuine "Triple-Beam LED" option is offered on some Lexus models in this class — a distinctive three-projector design, more advanced than standard Bi-LED, though not necessarily standard equipment even on F Sport
