Anyone have any suggestion on how to tap that green wire? Everything is wired except for that. Thanks.

I went ahead and tapped the ignition (red). BTW, I did not see any improvement in output (led version). The only benefit (my fog) is improved presence of your vehicle. I may be looking at alternatives to this.

I may tap that green wire too if I don't like the AC. I just need to look up the gauge of that wire.

Did the fog lights install a month ago...

Before I ordered the parts I evaluated if I could do this myslef. Made sure I can access the area behind the bumper. Opened the hood and plastic covers and made sure I can run those wires as described in this thread. Made sure I can access the parking light power souce and found that was difficult. Anyways decided to order the parts and start the job.

When the parts arrived followed the steps posted by OP. However, the fog lamps I used was different.

The diificulty I had was tapping the power source. I tried and tried but ran an extension wire to the passenger side and tapped into the steering wheel heater fuse. This was only hot spot I found using multi meter when Pushed on Start Engine button. The problem here is if the engine is not started you could drain the battery. I'm yet to find an alternative power source.

The other difficult thing was running the wire through the fire wall into the cabin. Suggestion here is to using a long screw driver to pinch the rubber down and use other screw driver with somebody's help to push the wire inside the cabin..

Some pictures below.

Thanks for all the help from the club.

Thanks guys, glad it was helpful.

I don't think mine had gaps that big. I used two screws per light (part number 93567-A5014). These are usually less than $1 each at the Toyota/ Lexus parts counter.

And yes, the hardest part of the install is tapping the green wire. Because space is so small in that area.

As for running a wire thru the firewall, just use a clothes hanger. Or a metal stick hard enough to penetrate a rubber seal, and at the same time bendable so you can direct it out the engine bay. Once through just tape your wire on the engine side and pull wire thru into the cabin. Put a little silicone or soap on the wire to make your job easier.

Has anyone installed these fog lights on their 2015 GS350 F-Sport yet? I tried to install them on mine yesterday and I guess Lexus changed the reservoir on the '15 model because it basically blocks half the fog light area. I really don't want to have to buy a washer reservoir from an older year....

that sucks

duraiaras

Mine is 2015 GS350 F-Sport.

the top half of the fog light hits the reservoir....

bclexus

That's really odd that Lexus would change the location of something like a reservoir after 2-3 years of the model being in production. There must be a good reason why they changed it - I wonder why...

Does anyone know if the OEM fog lights from the luxury trim will fit in the garnishes ? I already have the OEM fog lights, but im doing a f sport bumper swap out, so i wasn't sure if i needed a new fog light housing....

GregCanada

Yes, it will work just fine, but i would suggest a set of LED fog housings if you can afford it. About $150 from theretrofitsource

No question is dumb unless not asked.
