Hey all,
I was wondering what are y'all inputs on fog lights with HIDs? I hear white with HID doesn't look good.

Also anyone rock jdm style fog lights or do you guys just get the real deal?

I believe that they are H3, someone will have to confirm that for me, but if they are H3, and you get HIDs look for H3C bulbs, the normal H3 HID's will not fit, and are too long.

Yeah the normal H3 HID's will technically work if they will fit, but the H3C will give better light output and distribution. ...actually are the fog lights reflectors or projectors?

i got the oem fogs and they are just as good as the ebay 20$ ones. on the ebays all you have to do is just give it a little more sealant so they don't fog up. :thumb:

So, I'm guessing H3c bulbs won't fit? I seen HID fog lights been done before, so I'm sure it's possible.

They are reflectors. Ambers sound good right about now too. Haha.

Did you read what he wrote? He said H3 probably won't fit and H3C WILL fit...

Well if they are reflectors then they should work, the H3C are more so better for projectors, with reflectors either would work i guess....
