    Reading, reading and more reading of anything I can find on here and thought I could just go out on a limb and ask the community outright for LED fog light opinions, input, and maybe get a good discussion going from those that have made the swaps from OEM to the three (3) most popular I see.

    So...without further rambling here goes:

    Morimoto XB LED

    TRD Pro

    Baja Designs

    - Pros
    - Cons
    - Any details appreciated

    Thanks!

    I don’t really have any experience with either just wanted to drop by another option that was released relatively short time ago from KC lights. They made a full plug and play kit for fogs

    I have the Morimoto Fogs and for street use they're awesome. The units are drop in and plug'n'play using factory connectors. The beam is wide but I had to adjust them up a bit out of the box. I don't think these would be that great for offroad use but for pavement and everyday driving at night these rock.

    Morimoto and the TRD Pro fogs are driving lights and usable on the street. The baja or other rigid lights will blind the shit out of everyone on the road.

    I did this ^^^ and now have Baja Designs Squadron Sport WC fogs... much better quality and more light.

    I have 2 extra sets of stock fogs in hand, 1 is LED and 1 is the regular stock bulbs.

    This should be part of your poll list. Easy, effective, and if you shop around, less expensive than the other options.

    I love my Morimoto fog lights. I solely got them for street use, if I need off-road light then I would add ditch lights or hidden light bar.

    So it’s really really what do you need them for? I have nothing bad to say about my Morimotos though.

    I think the LED fogs they put in the tundra this year are the same part as the Lexus Fogs, but I haven’t seen a new tundra yet.

    I just installed the CALI Raised 18w 3x2 fogs with OEM plugs. They're fantastic up here in foggy W. Washington.
