Choosing fog light bulbs
This is for the non f sport 2014 model. I think it's coming down to the Philips Xtreme LEDS, the V-leds, or the PIAA plasma ion halogen bulbs. I am going with yellow fogs. Anybody have input on these bulbs or some pictures for compariosn??

I switched out my dads fogs on his GS to the standard VLEDs and they match the HIDS but don't put out much usable light. They look nice but light output isn't the greatest.
I personally highly recommend the PIAA bulbs.

I just installed the Extreme LED fog light bulbs from XenonDepot and I love the light output. I'm just not a fan of yellow/halogen bulbs at all so that's why I opted for the LED kit. They are on the pricey side but I'd say it's worth every penny.
However keep in mind the bulbs are huge I have the F-Sport conversion and had to modify my washer fluid tank in order to fit them. I'm not exactly sure how they fit on the regular bumpers.

I have the PIAA plasma Ion yellow bulbs and have had no problems with them for two years now. I always have them on with my headlights and the usable light is excellent. I love the look and its color is close to my older '01 GS430 that had the stock yellow output fogs.

Yeah these are the ones I'm leaning towards too. Was just curious if the LEDs put out a better yellow than the PIAA

I have the HID on my 2002 and I do like them. What conversion kit did you use. And can you post pics with your lights on?

@lysis250 - Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad that you're enjoying the H11 Xtreme LED kit
I hate to do this, but just did a price drop for Memorial day on these... $83.99 shipped within the contiguous USA...

It really depends on the "yellow" color temperature you are looking for, some prefer the highlighter yellow vs. a deeper yellow. Here's an example with Putco's Pure Yellow halogen replacements:

Nokya also makes a nice looking yellow halogen bulb!

I have a 14 GS non f sport and have had 3 setups, 2 of which you are considering. PIAA, phillips LED both yellow and 6k. Of the 3 the LED have the most usable light and as stated in previous posts the PIAA is more of a golden yellow. I also did not want to go HID conversion so I stuck with the yellow philips LED (purchased from xenon depot during a sale). If you're going for deep yellow go with PIAA, for output philips LED.
