Default Sewell fog light conversion

I am looking to do the fog light conversion on my '15 F-Sport. Is there any reason why the "Fog Lamp" is more expensive than the "Led fog lamp" on Sewell's website?

You would think the Led would be more. My apologies in advance if this has already been posted. I would also like to see a few of you guys who have done this mod, how do you like it so far?

Thanks in advance!

Maybe a discounted price as those are what come with the 15 regular models now. I loved it on my first 13 GS gotta get it done now and really want it as we have have been having rain and fog and my fog lights would have been great. Here is the last pick I had of the car with the fogs, I had an OEM setup so I had the stalk.

How difficult is the install on the F-Sports? I miss having fogs as well. Do they automatically come on with the headlights or would I have to get some switch for it?

When I got mine done I made sure they made it so I could turn them on without headlights. Hopefully when the guy does it again he make a better detailed pic of the process. It's more about the wiring than the actual fog light install or stalk install.

There are some threads on how to install in an f-sport. (like this one https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...t-install.html )

But as for the fog's themselves, you can use the same ones i did from theretrofitsource.com https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...og-lights.html and just get the wiring / bezel from Sewell.

Yeah the LED's I have are Lexus ones but not the same as on sewell. I point you to the thread I made. This is the output of the ones I have, they are a projector LED.

I did Morimoto LEDs and they seem to work fine.

I will probably pull them out and replace them with a different style of fog since I don't love the normal aesthetics.
