I bought something under iJDMToy think these are the same. They're all the same from China. Whoever sells it.

We don't have much of a choice on these cars w/ this bumper. I'm a lightning snob and a hardcore OE lighting purist. But the OEM lights still look doofusey and are over $1,000. I'd rather make my own fog lights which is what I'm currently working on.
With lights size is everything (on engineering terms) and these fogs are just too small to be worth a damn, even in OE form. Lexus should've given the F Sport bumper the same 20-year old Toyota/Lexus fog lights so we can use something of size.
My 2016 Ct200h had a really hardcore glorious LED fog set up. Intense!!!!!! Blasts the OE F Sport fogs back to the stone age purely due to the size of the lens/reflector.
These quasimoto chinese specials just give an extra visual appearance at night. Looks cool. And gives me something to base my fog light project from.

I feel you! How about the old projector fogs from the 1is? Could those work?
They look factory. That's exactly what they're modeled after. Do they perform like factory? Probably not. Close enough... mainly for appearance

The DT Moto one (and other one on eBay) differs from the iJDM Toy one fairly significantly from what I've read.
Brightness:
- DT Moto is a lot weaker compared to iJDMToy. I've read that DT Moto doesn't do much at all in regards to aiding driving, whereas the iJDMToy one is really bright (see below).
Cut-off:
- iJDMToy doesn't have a cut-off shield, so its been said to be blinding to on-coming traffic. Plus since its significantly brighter, it could be a problem for police, drivers, etc.
Design:
- From behind the front trim piece, these differ significantly. iJDMToy is an original design, cylindrical in shape. The DT Moto is a replica of the JDM spec Lexus version (looks like they took a mold of it). Unfortunately the brightness is not the same.
- iJDMTToy you can see the yellow LED in the front lens...the DT Moto one looks clear/black.
Plug & Play:
- The DT Moto one is Plug and Play assuming you get the new turn signal stalk (+$120). The connector matches the OEM one. I'm not sure if the iJDMToy one is or not.

From reading the ijdmtoy install procedure, the recommendation is to tap into the front DRL lights. So not plug and play but some splicing involved which is not too hard.
