How did you get the daylights to look like that? I'm trying to get away from the yellow-ish look.

Those are too bright, almost like HID kit. Don't you think? Also curious how they go fogs on without headlights, unless those are rewired with a separate direct switch

but i thought i read somewhere on this forum that the daylights run on a lower wattage so no matter what you change them out to, they will still look yellow-ish? sorry, i'm a girl and this is my first lexus and don't want to mess things up.

those are not day light running lights, those are just LED to replace the driving light when your low beams are on
