Default LED blinkers, LED Parking lights.

Hi looking to upgrade all the Lexus in our family. The cars I will be upgrading 2006 Lexus IS350, 2006 Lexus GS300, 2007 Lexus ES350. What I want to do is LED turn signals, LED parking light, and HID fogs.

Is it true you have to remove the bumper to install HID fogs and front turn signals?? .

What is the best place to buy these? Everyone suggests V-LEDS but why not Amazon? I always buy my LEDS for my other cars on Amazon and they are 1/3 the price and work great!

front turn signals LED yes you probably need to take out the bumper as you do not have access to the back of the headlight easily.... as far as HID fogs i could install them without taking the bumper off

Only the front turn signal needs bumper removal.

No front signal mod then. Do you need anti warning cables for the HID fogs?

Yea you don't need to remove the bumper, just pull back the fender wells. Much easier that way
