the 50/60 pair are called out for all 10 11 12 and 13 gx without date changes.

is there something other than the superior (50/60) design for the 10-13 gx?
if so, what are the numbers?

After a ton of vehicle testing, research, and purchasing a dozen factory Lexus lamps, we are underway with a new design for the GX460 specifically. It will be available towards the end of this year, due to the requirements in tooling, and delays in the overall supply chain right now. You can make the Tacoma kit fit with some modification, but you'll have to expand the slots a bit. Thanks!

Just thought I’d come back and check in on this since it is hopefully getting closer! Any updates?

We are still on track for a release this year! It is a whole new design called "Type CGX," indicating the "C" fitment for certain other Lexus models, as well as the GX460 specifically. We have tested a number of times with a GX here at our facility and we are very happy with the fitment.

And yes, we are also researching the development of a kit for the newer GX, using our new SSC1 SAE Fog pod! We are in preliminary stages now, but it's on the table.

So good to hear! Thanks for the update, looking forward to getting the halogen fogs replaced. Keep seeing all the cool videos on Facebook, hoping one will be for the GX.

cannot post fb links here, but on their page they just did a live stream from sema - at the 15:50 mark, they advertised some fog lights that look very similar to the ones on a toyota.

Hey all, we do have promising news on the "Type CGX" for the 2010-2013. The SS3 setup will be available for our holiday sales, so just a few weeks out!

The new OE-style Elite Series fog will be available with the same CGX fitment too, and is being released in mid-December.

No updates for 2014+ quite yet!

Thanks!

in comparison to the SS3 line up, how bright will the output be on the elite series, will there also be levels in this series similar to the SS3's sport, pro and max?

Elite will be about the same power level as SS3 Sport (which is still 3-4 times more output than stock). There will not be multiple power levels available. The main difference is the beam pattern. The Elite fog has a very sharp, narrow, and wide OE-style pattern, rather than a "wall" of light output like the Stage Series fog. More comparison photos will be available closer to launch so you can see what I mean. Thanks!

Along these same lines, are the SS3 pods getting the backlight? Would be cool to have these setup with the backlight tapped into parking lights.
