HID in the fogs

Where can i buy HID bulbs for my foglights in my 01 AE? I'd do the yellow thing but i dont wanna bite off of a GS and i just want bright bulbs in general. Would the fog light housing support the bulbs? Whats our bulbs size?

I know you dont want to bite off the gs but the yellow fog is actually more fuctional than any other color.

I got 3k hid in my fogs.

Can I just put HID bulbs in my fog light housing or will that burn the housing/ballast?

Take a visit to www.NYCMAXIMAs.org and check the vendor section for HID2000, he's the best!

Lexus knows what they are doing. The Yellow fogs aid visibility, the yellow fogs are much more functional that white fogs.

So that can justify style and fuction.

I assume you are doing a full kit with the ballast and such. When done, let us know how hard the install is.

Pics would be great, plus details on what kit you use plus who you purchased it from. There are tons of people selling various kits.
