I am swaying heavily towards 3000k HID for the Fog but was wondering if I will have problems with the Cops? I live in Maryland if that helps.

Should not be. IS300 comes with yellow stock fog lights.

That's two different questions!

1. technically, I believe someone here (maybe one of the LEO's) stated that all aftermarket HID kits were illegal... the thing is, most LEO's don't know the difference between aftermarket and factory HID, unless is blatantly obvious regarding the glare!

2. yellow is def not illegeal, as kuhan stated, some vehicles come equipped with yellow fog lights from the factory. WHite, amber, and yellow should be perfectly fine for fogs.... someone please correct me if I'm wrong

i see all kinds of colors on the road. I think yellow is an ok one. I think red and blues are the more heated colors to cops.

Yellow HID is fully legal as a color. You cannot sport red blue violet or green. All of those colors have a emergency vehicle representation
