interesting...curious to see pics....and why would you need to change bulbs?? you have an L-Tuned IS?
yeah I was trying to ask our buddy to ask TRD but this guy never calls back.

Good job, Im going to write that down.

Although I still have my japanese manual on the fogs. I can't read japanese. My friend kats read parts of it.
i had to change the bulbs cause mine burned out- and yes i have an ONYX L'tuned. I'd post some pix but i don't know how :( thanks DON for your help. if anyone is interested Steve Ganz at carson toyota has a pair of clear L-tuned fog lamps for sale--get 'em while they're hot!!!!! and still available :lol:

You need an H3 bulb.
At any auto store.

A PIAA and a Sylvania bulb are bout the same quality. You'd be better off buying a Sylvania in my opinion. They're a few bucks.

Why spend the money on a coated bulb that is used to pass light through a dichroic lens?

My advice is to just buy a normal replacement bulb.

Or do what I'm doing and use an HID kit.
