Default Fog lights transformation...need advice

The foglights i got in right now are really ugly and ugly yellow color. I hear of people putting in silverstars in the slot of the foglights. How would i do that. What kind of hardware would i need to do this?

Also, if you look closely at your foglights, there is a little clip that goes on the inside side of the foglight. Probably 1 inch wide and 2-4 inches long. I don't know what this part is called. Any ideas???

You can replace the bulb, I forgot what size it is though. The piece your talking about pulls out to reveal some hidden screws....Those darn Lexus people always hiding stuff on us. Ok, just did a quick search and found the bulb size for you, its an H3, good luck takin it out.

Where can i buy one of those little clips. Anyone know what there called?? I suppose i could just go to the lexus dealer...prob charge me 55$ for it haha.

I'm sure its easy to replace the bulb, but putting in silver stars?? Won't i need some kind of new connecter in order to do that? A regular plug for 9005 size bulbs. Also, won't there be a higher voltage goin through the wires. Are the fog light wires designed for that much current?
