Default Fogs Installed Finally!!!

So I finally got my car back after a week, the LED's are bright but not bright enough to be considered fogs more like DRL's. My guy didn't seem to make a list of how to, but I could be wrong as he said Monday he would have all the pictures for me. Here is the finished product and I must say it looks good. Yes I know the color doesn't match I'm to lazy to look for one so I will probably get something else installed in there later.

What do you mean, I had to pay to get the parts if that's what you mean and pay an installer.

How did you get the foglight icon to come on in the interior dash panel?

If you look closely at your IP you'll see the icon for the fogs so I'm assuming Lexus manufactures one standard IP and just leave unavailable features specific to yourself off. Since bigblack used the stock stalk it'll light up.

Yeah, I noticed that too. Interesting.

Those fogs look really bright to me. Are these the JDM F-Sport fogs, or the JDM LED fogs with blue LEDs?

Looks great man.

The fogs look good. May as well put something functional in those locations.

I see you bigblack... nice. Yeah the HLs are yellowish as opposed to the fogs which as you know are white... Get some diff bulbs for those HLs. I was also wondering how the fog icon popped up in your cluster... But yardie answered my question.

Look amazing! I am also curious to see how your installer managed to get all the oem features to work, Fogs are next on my mod list.

Since I used the OEM stalk thats my guess as to how that showed up, it amazed me too.

Yep that was my guess as well, saw it when I had my 3GS and some icon could be seen in the back when the sun hit it right.

Naw those are way too much, these are from iJDMToy actually, they are really temporary tell I make my own one from the stock fog-light housing.

Exactly what I said when I looked at the empty hole, well covered empty hole.

Yeah I think they are 6K which my current HID's are 5K from KBB. Not sure I want to get anything, I have a feeling there is nothing that will match it spot on.

Well I can tell you it really isn't for the DIY unless you have some understanding about wiring. The GS F-Sport does not any wiring or spot for the fog wiring in the car so it's basically making your own.
