HID fog light installed

so i installed a HID headlight kit a few weeks ago and was so impressed with the results over the factory headlights that i decided i needed to do HID fogs too since the factory ones looked crappy compaired to the new HID head lights.

Install was super simple and plug n play... hardest part was jacking the car up in my tiny garage

looks a bunch better than the factory set i think and the road at night is completely different than before... much easier to see it

Foglights appear halogen from the pics, which city lights are you running? They match the HIDs nicely. EDIT: OK, appears you went yellow with the fogs.

city lights as in low beams are from DDM tuning 35w hid kit... the parking lights are the AZN leds and the fogs are the same DDM tuning 35W hid kit

I just purchased the same thing from www.houseofhid.com.

I'll be doing HID brights to match my 6,000Ks and I will be doing yellow HID foglight bulbs as well. Looking forward to this.

LOL, yep need to order those up. Had good luck with DDM stuff, had one issue long ago but they took care of it.

You going to make the meet on the 30th up here?

Anyone know if the W211 will support a 55W setup?

the kit i installed has a 55w version that others have used with no problem... my 35w are bright so i think the 55w will have everyone flashing their headlights at you
