Default HID fog lights... who has them?

I just upgraded my fogs to HID's with 8k bulbs and i was amazed by the light output. A lot brighter and the extra light output from the sides is amazing.

the aim is off and really high but i've adjusted it since.

With the fogs off


With the fogs off


Anyone else upgraded their fogs?

yeah, only I went with 6000K instead. I drove for 3 years with 8000K in my 2GS and wanted something different this time. Actually like the 6K alot more

3K here. Love the visibility I get with them, and I also like having a bit different of a setup from the masses on the road.

6k's to match my 6k lows. Huge improvement both aesthetically and functionally. Agree it's a must have.

Seems like a lot of ppl either got 3k for the yellow look or got colors to match their low beams. I guess im the odd one with 6k low beams and 8k fogs.

Where can I order them from? Does anyone make a kit that will not require cutting of the factory wires?

You dont have to cut wires, all kits are plug n play. You just need to make sure you buy the kit with 9006 HID bulbs. You can buy the kit on ebay, but I would not recommend that, the quality of those kits is .......... or you can get the kit from one of Clublexus vendors. You can look for them here, https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...rketplace-118/ I personally dont know their quality, since I made my own kit, but many people bought kits from them and no problems reported.
