Default Anyone know if 16+ LED/Halogen Fog's same design as 13+?

Hello All,

Going to be switching the current front end to the 2016+ F Sport front end. In regards to that, I am trying to figure out if the fog lights from the 13+ utilize the same design as the 16+ front, with the exception of them being LED/halogen. These are the OEM fog lights. I am needing to order the garnishes, but not sure if I also need the fog lights, since I currently have them already on my 13+, which is the same as the Toyota Prius.

This is what I currently, have, but they are a halogen set up running a Mirimoto Yellow HID Kit.

I don't think I need the fogs. Just need the garnish and fog light bracket. Will be running the GTR Ultra Lighting 2.0 yellow LED's.

TIA

Correct, you'll need the 2016 bracket/garnish. The fog light assembly itself is the same for 2013-2020, only difference is the bulb type and the exterior garnish. See my post here: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...l#post10797742

For MY 2013-2015, the exterior finish of the fog lamp was a circle which showed more of the bulb/housing. For 2016, they purposely designed the exterior of the fog lamp garnish to have a more rectangular finish that would only highlight/show the rectangular LED bulb - fitted to the same circular assembly (parts-bin style business model so they wouldn't need to redesign the fog assembly itself, just the cheaper plastic exterior garnish!).

The image below also shows all the parts for a 2016 setup (https://lexusboutique.net/products/g...amp-unit-set):
