Thank You Very Much for everything!!
I am glad it worked out and I will have the stalk ready when you are ready.
For now, I think the install from Tommy will do it.


FYI, there will be 2 Options to make this F-Sport JDM Fog Light work.

Option A (The Econ one.) and Option B (The Luxury one.)

Option A will use a universal switch.
(I hope DoriSaru can take a photo of the switch and where is it located.)

Option B will be at least $120 more expensive than Option A, but it comes with the OEM Stalk that you can opreate the fog lamp like OEM.

Installation from Tommy will be around $120 for Option A.

Nigel sent me to Tommy @ Music Box in El Monte for the install. His a really cool guy that knows his stuff. He wired the fogs independent from the DRL and driving lights so i could turn it off and on whenever i wanted to. In the future I will use the stalk which Nigel can also provide.

The overall fog lights looks Awesome. It adds a nice touch to the front of the car. The fog lights uses H11 bulbs which doesn't really cut it. I will probably add Yellow bulbs then transfer to HID after

Thank you Nigel and Tommy for making this happen i will for sure do more business with you guys


Here are some pictures.



Tommy unscrew the bottom left and right plastic piece to get to the back to install the Fog lights

Default Fogs

Hello First post. I drive a BMW X5 but my wife has a 2013 GS 350 F Sport. I thought the lack of fog light was dumb as well as no HUD available in the F sport.

So cost is $385 plus $120 for the stock plus install with installer wiring corrct? There is no harness behind the grill?

I will do this in Portland , OR as I have given up DYI jobs since the cars got so many computers and get toughy if not done right.

No stock fog harness in the f-sport. The fogs are 385 and the stalks are 120. The install will be 120 if you go to Tommy @ Music Box but if you go somewhere else it might be different. If you want to install the stalks it will cost a lot more.

How much did it cost you to have the dealer cover up the license plate holes and paint? I am thinking of doing the same....

Thanks for the pics. Do you have any other pics? It is kinda difficult to picture where the switch is in the center console.

Ditto, it's a little difficult to get the bearings or orientations in the posted pics.

It was free. I complain to them on how getto they installed the license plate by making a hole in bumper. I told them I was going to make a custom plate holder using the hook. Lol

About 2-3 hours according to him.


Btw, we have updated 5 options for the GS F Sport Fog Light upgrade, please check page 1.


If there is enough interest, I can set up group buy discount for all of you.

Option 1 - 5 are all in stock and ready to ship.

Does it come with instructions on how to do at least the on/off switch install? It seems like with the harness I would just plug into the lighting system of the car and have the option to turn it off with the switch? Also, is there a visual difference between the Lexus Fogs and the OEM Style fogs? I might have to do a self install as i don't have a Tommy here in NJ I can go too without getting reamed on the install price.

Check out the install the Tommy did for me a while back with a video clip...(Fog lights on my FSport)
I did the luxury install (worth it):

My car is with Tommy right now getting the calipers painted (I will post the finished pictures later in a different thread).
