Default 2008 GS350 Foglights

I was wondering if anyone can help me on this? Which is the best fog light bulb replacement to match the headlight color (white)? or is there a super bright yellow that's brighter than the stock (faded yellow)? Can i just change the bulb or do i have to do a conversion to a HID?

If you want to match your headlights, I'd suggest you convert your fogs to HID's. Everything else just wont look as good.

and there is no halogen bulbs that's going to be as bright as your stock HID

get another set of 4300k HID kit for your fog if you want them to match

ballasts aren't that big, just secure somewhere behind the bumper with zip ties

some new one even come with super slim ballasts, not hard at all

if you are in socal, i have the perfect guy for you that can do it in 30 mins
