LEDs in fog lights don't make sense to me. Fog lights are very useful parts of your lighting system especially when you put in HIDs and doubly so when they are 3000K. My 3000Ks really cut through bad weather.

How can you make your fog lights come on with the parking lights? Is there a mod for doing that? Please advice. Thanks.

RenatUSSR

This is a standart feature for European Cars. Only parking lights could be turn on. Then I just add fog lights seperatly from low beams.

^^^ Really, didn't know that. It's a great standard feature for European cars vs. US standard. I guess i have to do some more research to make it work like yours. Thanks. BTW, very nice LED mod

Actually sales on GS350AWD just started in our country. (in december of 2009). This is not feature. Better say - the traffic rules are slightly different in Europe. Not allowed to have 4 parking lighs in rear lamps. So we don't have LEDs in inner lamps. Instead of 2 LEDs in the trunk we have rear fogs.. (dunno why, I even don't use them) And this makes European GS looks ugly! I just ordered inner lamps from "American" GS I think (I'm sure) they are more beautiful then ours..

I'll try to guess... You can't turn on park. lights + fogs without your low beams ? Low beams are always on when IGN ON ? This is about American laws.. Your low beams should be turned on anytime you drive, so that's why worldlead car manufactures makes this feature standart, in stock...

BTW, who is interested in 6000K bulbs also can look at my previous mods with V-LEDs.

Search the forum for the DIY for installing LED mirror covers, I forgot who did it... but in any case, you'll have to follow the same steps to get the side mirrors off and disassembled in order to reach the bulb from what I've gathered. As far as a lightbulb change goes, it's rather involved.

If either of my puddles goes out, that's when I'll consider replacing them with LEDs and probably piggyback a mirror cover mod on top of the job.

Thanks Jay
I did not realize it was sooo involved

RenatUSSR

You can use this D.I.Y.
But I firstly removed the mirror itself! Only then I loosen screws!
It's possible to remove the mirror without touching (4) screws.

Thanks RenatUSSR this is EXACTLY what i needed...thanks !!!

RenatUSSR

Friend of mine doing all the procedure in couple of minutes
He did it for first time in IS250, now in GS350 he removes the mirror in few seconds.
I'm not doing it by myself

Mirror on the reverse side...
You can see special places for screwdriver..
Btw, there are no such special places in IS250, so now in GS it's even easier to remove the mirror without touching screws.

I'm just wondering, do your city lights actually glow that much in person as they do in the pics?

I changed my city lights to some LEDs and they don't look anywhere as bright or glow as much.

PS: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/G...viewsTabAnchor

Does anyone know if these will fit for the city lights?

RenatUSSR

During the day light they glow not so much as in night time.
Not so much as shown in pics. (during the daytime)

Yes! This 13-LED bulb will fit! I say it with full confidence cuz I had them too.. I gave them to my friend.

But I recommend these one if want LEDs shine in all directions..

I compared them to that 13-LEDs bulbs and this High Power 5-LEDs for 13$ - shine/glow much better. More light output gurantee. I'll try to compare them with flank bulbs in parking lights. Should be nice too.
