Just looked yesterday at the fogs on my 2000 GS300 and while the "fixture" lens is clear the bulb is covered by a yellow lens and metal mask/shroud.

So you likely already have yellow fog lights.

Not true...the only people who have yellow fog lights actually had to get the HID option. And it is just a glass yellow lens cap over the bulb.

I do have HID, but why yellow fog lights only with HID?

Oh, I get it!

HID gives much whiter (broader spectrum) light so visibility in fog would be even more of a problem than normally, so yellow fogs would give contrast balance.

But that also means you can buy the yellow fog fixtures from Lexus.
