So you bump a 6 year old thread and make one . my guess would to be take a screwdriver and push the reflector downa bit. if not open them up and do a retro

so then why didn't you just purchase the proper parts to begin with?
mini h3's are the way to go with the fog lights.
You can either use a dremel on the grey plastic part of the fog lights and try to open them that way, or use the oven method to open the lights up.
good luck

what bulb size are you trying to fit in there?
as for opening the housing for fogs, it is possible.. same way as opening the headlights..
just gotta be patient ... don't rush it..
