You are looking at. JDM Spec F-Sport GS350....... The market outside of the US gets fogs on the F-Sport......
Forget about the fogs. I don't even care if it's lit up or not. My main question is, is the model in the last pic provided by Lexon in Japan or should I try VIP first?

F-Sport should def get fogs. For what I'm paying on a $57K car it better have 'em hah. A conversion would be a PITA because its not only the fogs you'd have to buy, but the lighting stalk too.

that is incredibly hawt!!

It looks better without the fogs, much more aggressive IMO. The fogs kinda kill the aggressiveness of the F-Sport

Oddly enough.. You are correct....

BUT they did give you the "Optional" GS450 h w/ F-Sport Package....

Hybrid Drive & Cool LED headlamp housings

Yeah I know.

But it is possible. Nothing that a little DIY and mod-job can't do (i.e. change the entire headlamp housing)

However, I guess that would void warranty...............unless you can live without it.

Looks like there is HOPE afterall.... !!!



GS350 Base Model
81210-06070 = LAMP ASSY, FOG, RH
81220-06071 = LAMP ASSY, FOG, LH

GS350 F-Sport Model
81210-06070 = LAMP ASSY, FOG, RH F-SPORT PACKAGE
81220-06071 = LAMP ASSY, FOG, LH F-SPORT PACKAGE


93567A5014 = screws (2 total)





GS350 Base Model in US
53141C--> 53141-30160 = GARNISH, RADIATOR GRILLE , RH
53142C--> 53142-30060 = GARNISH, RADIATOR GRILLE, NO.2 , LH

GS350 F-Sport Model in US (BLANK COVERS)
53141C--> 53141-30170 = GARNISH, RADIATOR GRILLE F-SPORT PACKAGE, RH
53142C--> 53142-30070 = GARNISH, RADIATOR GRILLE, NO.2 F-SPORT PACKAGE, LH



UPDATE: Aquiring the Parts & part numbers for the JDM Garnish w/FOG LAMP..

This is just a great start....!!!!!!

It makes the process of Fog Light conversion a few steps easier.....

Joe, It's awesome that we now know that the parts are available but do you think the wiring would be difficult? Will it be an easy job to integrate a control switch to inside the cabin?

Well lets just say there is no Fog wiring at the Fog location (on an F-Sport Pkg)... I would just fabricate a custom wire loom with standalone wiring / power source.. And then install a factory style on/off button next to the steering wheel.. (think HID bulbs)

Now, if the wiring is there... It might be just as easy to purchase the stalk and maybe add a fuse... Too early to tell...

BUT if you own a Base GS and do an F-Sport bumper conversion, this becomes a walk in the park... (soo far)

fogs > no fogs

getting the fogs mounted is easy, but how to make the wiring and most importantly control nice, that's the challenge

Not really..... As long as you have basic wiring skills...

There are a few Lexus / Toyota On/Off switches that will probably pop right into one of those blanks for that OEM Look...
