Back order from Sewell till Oct 09.

Look like F-sport owners want to get their hand on those.

Are these the 2014s or just an LED replacement for the 2013s? These look really good btw.

These LED Lamps "will be all the rage"

P.S. - I centered the lamp manually to the opening on the GS JDM Fog cover...
My hope would be when bolted up, it looks the same

Yes, VLEDS is the place to buy quality LEDs.
That's where I buy all my LEDs and have for years.

I have to agree with you again Joe. Plus, can't beat plug and play.

These LED fogs come from Lexus with a valid Lexus warranty, all for a little over $230. That's a very convincing reason to consider them over the aftermarket ones.

It's a LED bulb I've used in my Lexus vehicles for years without a problem.
Many others here have also.

Should I worry about overheating and potential melting? Also, would you mind posting exactly the type of VLED you got for your car?

thx

I have the 3-4 year older style 5K 28 LED bulbs they don't even sell anymore.


Today,I'd buy these with the Cree R5 chips.

http://www.vleds.com/bulb/h-series/5...11-1-pair.html

I haven't read of any overheating issues and many members here use VLEDS LEDs in their fogs..


Here's the VLED choices.

http://www.vleds.com/bulb/h-series.html?cat=699

I only buy my LEDs from VLEDS and have for at least 5 years.
No Ebay LEDs for me.


Can't go wrong with the oem set if you feel more comfortable.
