2013 GS350 Independent Fog Light Control
I have searched and searched, but found no definitive answer to what I seek...
Basically I have a 2013 GS350 with factory fog lights (which have been upgraded to projector LED) that I wish to be able to use without having low beams activated.
I know some have added an aftermarket switch to control fogs on those vehicles that didn't come with fogs (f-sport) and don't have the switch on the stalk.
My goal is to be able to run the fogs using the oem switch any time I want.
I know anything is possible, but I would like to know if this is feasible.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Short answer - yes, and it shouldn't be too hard.
Mine currently do this. I need to get dash light functionality working. I also want mine to shut off with the car with the same delay as the headlights, but still be able to turn them back on by flicking the switch off and on...
But right now they work with the stalk independent of any other light.

Edit: Never mind, I can read your sig
Would love to get some insight from anyone in my shoes that added this functionality to a US Spec GS350 (non F-Sport).

My concern is that this may be a limitation due to software programming and not hardware connections in vehicles that already come equipped with fog lights from the factory.

I'm sure there is a way to do it on the GS, but i do not have access to wiring diagrams.

I spent a lot of time researching this and pretty much it seems if you have factory installed fogs your only option is to run a separate switch. That's what I did and hid the switch in the coin box like another member mentioned they did. I ran the relay for the lights to my parking lights and the switch stays on all the time but you could wire it to anything. Using the stock switch doesn't seem like an option for us.
