    OEM fogs with hids?

    would the OEM foglight housing melt with HID's in them or warp in any way?

    sorry, not off the top of my head, but there are plenty of members that have replaced there stock fogs w/ glass fogs that run H3 bulbs, and the H3 bulbs can run HID. my fogs are HID and glass but are not stock size. the stock USDM fogs are pretty craptastic and melt rather easily even w/ simple upgraded halogens... but the JDM fogs may be able to use HID w/o ill affects.

    just get HID's in your heads, you dont need that much more. plus if you think about it. it would just make your car more noticeable to cops with all those bright lights and you have a higher risk of getting pulled over
