Default Which Fog Lights To Match Headlights?

Just purchased a '14 GS 350 last week coming from my '02 GS 300 for the past 13 years. Which fog lights will match the color of the headlights? Currently they are stock and the fog lights are yellow.

Thanks

Sorry I'm not much help, I'm using VLeds driving lights and Osram 7K Hids.

The fog lights will never match the headlights. Fog lights are yellow. Headlights are suppose to be white.

If you want driving lights to match the headlights, you can try looking at Morimoto LED driving lights. They are pretty close in color temperature but not exact. But it's close enough where I think you will be satisfied.

Folks have had success with just buying H11 bulbs from iJDMToy, VLED and Morimoto.

You can go with the OEM Lexus LEDs like these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LEXUS-OEM-F...0/232363460155

Note: Even the OEM bulbs from Lexus can't provide an exact 100% match in this scenario since your HIDs loose output and change color over time.

Exactly what I'm looking for! Do you know how many watts, Kelvins, and color?

I went with Morimoto XB LED. They match pretty close to my stock HID. Not a perfect match, but close enough.
See my install thread here:
