But form the video you posted theres a big difference but again its the consumers choice if they think its worth an upgrade. I personally think Jdm product are garbage. or good for temporary use/backup

Bottom line is Lexus better make LED all around, even the Corolla come standard with LED headlight.

Ok so what I learned when I had my friend install the driver side is that you need to push it in until its stuck there are grooves in the rubber that lock in which I clearly didn't pay attention to. The driver side is a pain in the **** and I could not see myself doing that. V3 are great but I wouldn't waste my money on that would rather waste it on the v3 for reverse lights.

Having driven Lexus vehicles with LED and HID lights, I definitely prefer the output of HID lights. I agree all turn signals and brake lights and all should be LED.
As for the front white vs amber. Please put amber turn signals in the car. I was going to bite my tongue about this, but I have to say something. Yes we want our cars to be cool, but these things are safety features first and cool second. Everybody knows that a flashing amber or red light is a turn signal. White LEDs in turn signals or blue or whatever are distracting and it creates a chance that someone may look at your car with the signal on and not immediately realize what it is that signal is trying to tell them. When driving down the road at 30, 40, 50MPH all it takes is a split second of confusion and it can be a disaster. Not worth it.

Exactly. We all have to share the roads with each other, doing something to your car that might just even maybe make things more dangerous for somebody else is just irresponsible, IMHO. A split second of confusion with you turning left at a stoplight or at speed across oncoming traffic and your and somebody else's lives could be over or changed forever.

I thought it's illegal to have turn signals other than amber for the front and amber or red for the back? Maybe I don't know my own state laws that well. 
I used to have a red turn signal on the back of my Camry and I hated it. That car has a super bright LED brake light (if u ever drove behind a 2010-2011 Camry u know what I'm talking about), so when ur flashing ur red turn signal it just blends in with the brake light and it wasn't even LED so it's weak.

I think the DOT requirement is that no light can be used in front that is not white or amber, and none can be used in the back that is not red or amber. I don't think it specifically references turn signals vs anything else. Even still...obviously people are not expecting a white or whitish blue turn signal.
