Default Diode Dynamics SS3 LED Fog Light Kit for 2013-2015 Lexus GS350

Hello Club Lexus members, I have a 2013 GS350 F-Sport AWD. I bought these fog-lights, I am wondering if they would work with the aftermarket bezel kits available for our cars off eBay.

Looks like it should. The aftermarket are the same shape as oem. Are you getting the Pro Led Lights? I'm interested to see how bright and how far/wide they throw off the light.

I'd be interested in the yellow ones.

thank you for your input, there the same 3in size as the morimoto. I picked the driver PRO white. The fog lights available in yellow and white have a shorter length but wider throw. ill add the pics when I'm finished with install, delivery is estimated 2weeks away

I run these (PRO yellow) on my FXT. They are simply incredible. Just make sure to aim them nice and low, the beam is surprisingly tall also.

Fog lights should always be angled down, don't want to blind oncoming traffic. Looks like these adjust with two screws, one on each side, a bit of a PITA compared to oem that just have one adjustment for up/down.

I would install these in the bracket on a level surface and then slightly angle it down from the level position, then tighten up the screws.

Hi Pesados,

Do you know if these would work with the 16+ F-Sport foglight garnishes

Thanks

What's your thinking behind purchasing the DRIVER pro for your fogs rather than the designated fog ones? I'm trying to make a decision, so your input would be great!

Also, what harness are you going to use and where are you going to draw the power from with the higher wattage Pro set? On a related note, do you happen to know what the lumen output is of our stock headlights? Is there any chance that the PRO would be brighter than the stock headlights? Thanks.

I live in NYC and the potholes at night are my reason. I figure if I illuminate the road better ahead of me I probably won't hit them as much in the night. Also since Covid-19 hit NYC roads haven't been swept so there is trash on the road flying around and I hate to hear the dragging noise. Plus I don't want to run over trash. The driver pro has 66,500 cd, I think they would be brighter than our stock headlights.

Do you think it would be a good idea to go with the SPORT for the lower cut-off if I'm installing it in my GS, or do you feel that the fogs will be low enough on the GS that I won't even need to worry about the taller vertical light scatter from the PRO? Thanks.

@NashM How did your install with the DD lights go? I just received my DD fogs, so I was wondering how your install went.
