do you really want your foglights to be brighter then your headlights thus rendering your headlights useless at night? i've seen people that had both headlights and foglights HID and it looks nice but just fogs..you would need some bright headlights to match. still cool nonetheless...i'd do it if i had the money hahah...let us know how it turns out

Why don't you just buy a HID Kit(bulbs and balasts) and swap them with your stock halogen headlight bulbs, instead of buying HID for your foglights. You'll have the stock headlights with HID's, which will probably keep the theives away...

I got them in the fogs, i honestly think its nice to look at, but as far as neccessary its definitly not. Get hids in the headlights that is a huge difference. I sell hids for autoaccessorystore.com, so if your looking to buy some pm me

do a an h4 kit hid kit. i mean it causes glare and all but you get you hids for the same price as the fogs would be.

if you do nto have hid headlight then do not do your fogs. and that si a bunch of money to waste $350+ to waste on some fog lights, unless you have hid's heads
