Default FogLight Question

Just got a 00 GS300 and it has white fog lights. I see some on the street that shines yellow. Is there a bulb that you buy that is yellow? If so what is the size? I am not going to stick yellow film on the lens to make it yellow. Or is it a totally different fog light housing that I would need to buy?

The yellow fog lights are found on GS with HID headlights. There is a yellow glass filter inside the fog light assembly. You may check in the classified as some owners do occassionally sale or exchange them. Some owners prefer white over yellow. You can also replace the fog light bulbs with PIAA ION Yellow bulbs to make it yellow.

Unless things have changed recently, I don't think they are that cheap either.

It is exactly the same size just yellow not white. Good idea just get a brand new one. This is where gonzo4u@earthlink.com

well for sure a while back there was a GB on these and the price was like 160 to 170 for the pair, i was amazed.

i don't know the price now, but i recall reading someone who said it's still around that price?

i never called in to ask though, of course
