The OEM halogen bulbs found on the 2013 GS 350 fog lamps are indeed H11

Not sure if they changed in 2014 / 2015

But they did change to LED housings (no bulbs to change), soo maybe the plug side was modified to H16 ?

Both the LED housing and projector LED housing use the same H11 plug.

 

Seems like they changed to LED for 2015.

14 models still use the H11.

It may be a little old and redundant question and I apologize for that, but what is the best bulb suggested here?

I found this one on eBay, which is a little pricey:

Have anyone got an error code after changing the H11 halogen to LED?

 

Not sure about this particular eBay one but I tried a few. Not worth it. IMO you should either get the new stock LED or VLEDs. I have the new LEDs on our RX. They look nice and clean but I personally prefer the round one. VLEDs are the best plug and play IMO. The first picture is stock and second is VLEDs.

 

I upgraded my halogen fog light bulb with the VLED 5K LEDs. It's a really good match with the stock HID bulbs.

 

This is the best LED bulb I ever tried. Love it and wonder if I could replace the factory HID with these:

The light output is pure white with no hint of blue, just like Lexus with factory LED, instant on and almost as bright as 55W HID. I'm currently have this on high beam for my Sienna but the H11 will fit the fogs on many Lexus and Toyota. This is the same as Vleds LMZ currently selling for $250/pair.

There will be no error code for changing from halogen to HID or LED.

 

Thanks for all responses. I'm going to try one of these suggested here and let the group know.

 

Has anyone used these Phillips Xtreme LEDs, http://www.usa.philips.com/c-p/78719719/x-tremevision-led-fog-lamp

 

I have not tried them in the fog lights. I have used them as high beam replacements. They are extremely bright for LEDs. I am about to change out the fog lights in my GS 450h, and I will be using the Philips H11. Passive cooling radiator. Nice installation. From what I see the VLED versions have a fan in them. That's ridiculous.

 

The 2014 with the luxury package with LED dogs and housing (no bulb from what I hear) so how can I go about having yellow fog lights?

 

Resurrecting this thread...has anyone tried these fog light replacements from VLED?

http://www.vleds.com/shop-bulb-numbe...ght-bulbs.html

If so, how are they? Thanks!

 

Have the previous generation of that VLED bulb in my pop's '11 GS350. The light output seems just as good as the halogens they replaced (but actual usable light and cutoff may fall a little short of standard halogens).

They provide a better overall "match" to the hids - not exact but much better. For $60, they are great for giving you a better white light, they are a quality product and its def. the easier route than going with a fog / HID conversion.

 

Good to hear...will probably get them for the color match with the stock headlights...any other replacement bulbs that anyone recommends for an easy direct-swap? I don't want to do the fog/HID conversion...did that with my last GS after initially installing SilverStars.

 

I recommend the following easy swaps:
Puddle Bulb (2): VLED 194 bulb
Door Courtesy bulbs (4): VLED 194 bulb
Reverse Bulb (2): VLED 921 bulb
Trunk Bulb (1): iJDMToy LED Strip (https://www.amazon.com/iJDMTOY-18-SM.../dp/B009K6IW00) OR Diode Dynamics SMD Board (http://www.diodedynamics.com/store/1...runk-light-led)

Be careful though - a few high quality bulb purchases along with the replacement fogs will def. start setting you back some $$$...but why not right??!

 

Yeah, I definitely need to switch out the puddle bulbs...the ones in my 06 GS were so much brighter. Thanks for the input!
