Looky [url="http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=28985"]here[/url] 
i'm an idiot and i used the same guide, very easy to follow.
and got some help from sparkystav on here...don't know about the MOT yet ..should be ok as i know the man personally at the MOT staton but i will defo ask him when it goes in for MOT which is next year anyway lol.
i did this conversion but i also did the flashig brake light conversion at the same time , since i wouldnt have to start pulling off boot liners again if i did the flash brake light seperatly.

Not technically illegal.
All the fog lights have to do is have a steady light when lit, and an independant switch to turn them on.

it is not illegal nor will it fail a mot!!!(i'm a mot tester)when checking the rear lights you just run through them so your fog lights and brake lights are not on at the same time as long as they all work you'll be fine, shhhhhhhh but half the testers i know just make sure the tell tail light on the dash or the switch light comes on!!!!
its a cool mod and i will be doing it in the very near future prob on sat!
