Looked in the DIY section and couldn't find anything. Anyone put HID's in their fog lights? Big Job? What is the bulb in the fog light? I pan on getting clear ones but I want to do the HID's on the stockers for now.

Thanks

I did. I just removed the belly pan & accessed the fogs from there.I think the stock bulbs are H10. Hardest part was deciding where to put the ballasts.
Pretty easy job. There are a few posts on this, just search.

3175 bulb but ive seen post where people put 9005(high beam bulbs) in and it has increased light output?

9145, 3175 isn't a halogen bulb, or even a bulb number. I retro fitted 9005' in my fog lights 2 years ago and still no issues.

ooppsss....got my numbers mixed up, what did you have to do to get those 9005 in the fogs?

Just trim the one tab a little bit and will fit right in.

Be careful on dark roads, they seem to blind the oncomming traffic.

Awesome. Thanks for all the tips guys. Going to go get an HID kit this weekend and try it out.

yeah, i put 9005's in mine. the first ones were 6000k and didnt seem to get flashed. i swapped over to 4300k and i seem to get it more than before. oh well.....whatever

I would def go with a 6000k or so. I want it to be the same color as the factory HID's. guess I will have to change the headlight triangle bulb too. That will look silly if I don't.

I made that mistake. Had 10000k hids in at one time and those halogen triangle bulbs looked awful

I have 8000k(too blue) in mine, don't get flashed, cops don't bother me, but I want to swap out to 5000k or 6000k so they match the headlights better.
They a good job of lighting up to the sides on the dark roads around here. Can see the critters before they get on the road.
