Help me identify my HID fog lights
I bought this car used and the previous owner had the HID lights installed. Noticed today that my left fog light is out. Does anybody know how many K my fog lights are by looking at the picture and where I can find a replacement? Thanks in advance.

Your fogs look like they are 6000K. Your headlights look like they are 5000K.
I would replace both fogs with a 5000 or 6000K HID bulb.

By cultural default my eyes are sensitive to Red and Blue lights.
