I might have to do a self install as i don't have a Tommy here in NJ I can go too without getting reamed on the install price.
I am sorry that I don't have an instructions on how to do it.
But the other thread has a video and photo of it from JoeZ.
The custom harness are for the Fog Light, the GS F-Sport do NOT come with pre-wire.

There is no visual difference between the Lexus Fog light housing/OEM Style Fog light housing.
They both look in the same shape and clear lens, but you will see the difference in quality.
That's why the OEM Style fog light are cheaper.

A few people in SoCal had installed.

My car is with Tommy right now getting the calipers painted (I will post the finished pictures later in a different thread).
Thank You for the reply.

Please post up some more details/pictures if you can.

Thanks for the response. I think in order to get a group buy rolling, it might be good to have Tommy write up some instructions, I would even pay extra for that. Here in NJ, I don't have an installer that I can trust, so instructions would go a long way for DIYers or even those that want to take it to an installer.....especially for an install of the OEM stalk. This way that installer would know immediately what needs to be done and what to charge. Right now, I am in limbo as to whether to order this. I don't know what needs to be done with the install or if I can do it myself.....I am talking about the simple switch option as I know the stalk needs to be done by a professional.

I'm waiting for those instructions too. And I'm interested in the HID yellow fogs.

I just my fog light, option #2 kit, from Nigel-JDMParts today and I am very pleased with quality of the parts and wire harness. The only item that I wish it came with is a DIY instructions. I would be more than happy to pay for it.

I think everyone is worried about the install costing too much It'd b nice to really get sum written up instructions cuz it would help ppl that r going to their local shops in their locations. Im very interested in this but I want to do it with the stalk instead of an custom switch. So Id like as much information on taking the steering wheel and airbags out and doing it right with the wiring and such. Please try to have tommy write an write up if possible, thanks Nigel.

Keep us updated on how long it takes them and how much they charge you. I'm betting 250-300 for install.

Yup I'll try to c if they will let me take pictures and watch them do the install so we can figure out how difficult it is. Well my buddy knows te shop and recommended me to go to them for the install. I'm hoping no more then 200, since I'll have all the hardware. But I'm gonna get them to install an hid kit in the fogs so will definitely have pictures.

I have searched here for detail DIY installing the JDM Spec Fog lights but haven't coming up anything especially using the kit NIgel is offering. I saw one in reference to the wiring diagram harness but i think he was using different switch not the JDM Stalk switch..
