Default lights

Hey,
today I instaled my new fog bulbs, bumper lights and parking lights and let me tell you that I will not do that again ... to change the bulbs on 2002 Rx 300 is a real pain in a$$...

I changed my parking lights to 9-LED hyperwhite bulbs to get rid of that yellowish color...and don't have to replace them ever again.

Scroll down the screen. You'll see the "Additional Options" section. Click on the "Manage Attachments" button in the "Attach Files" section.

Note the image must be 800x600 or smaller.

Wow, those look really nice.

What type of bulb are you using in your fog and lows?

To tell the truth I am not sure about the blue parking light... I thought it would look more like my side bumper lights What you think, should It stay or go?

I really like the fogs, they look so yellow, especially at night
You can see the difference

I have hyperwhite 9LEDs, they have a blue tint and match nicely with my Silverstar. HID will be my next project

You can have those wedge bulbs for step lights, here is a pic of blue 9LED bulbs. 9LED bulbs are way brighter than stock 168/194.

Blue light are reserved for law enforcement so it's illegal in most places. You might want to change that out before cops pull you over.

Blue courtesy light is OK. I like the yellow fog light. Looks really nice! Please post instruction when you can. Thanks for the light show.
