Hi Everyone

New member to forum. Just took delivery of a 2010 ES350 in Febraury. Love the the car. A huge difference between my 98 ES. Does anyone know how do I replace the fog lamp bulbs on 2010 ES...hate the regular bulbs thinking of installing LED bulbs.

Others have replaced them with HID bulbs, not sure about LEDs. Just do a search and I'm sure you will find several references to same.

Welcome!

I agree with SW, the LED-bulbs currently on the market for the 9005/6 series (or similar) don't produce much light, at least not at the "focal point" where the filament is located in a standard bulb. Therefore the light reflector won't be able to put light on the road, and you'll get a lot of glare.

Plus, they create WAY too much heat and probably won't last very long. Most of these LED-bulbs don't have built in voltage regulators or proper heat-sinking.
