      HID's direct will sell you an excellent quality kit for about 60 quid or you could try ebay for a 30 quid set which others have had good results with, i list HID fitting on my price list if you need them fitting, usually a bumper off job

      ok cheers mate. just not sure which are good kits etc. its just a pipeline idea atm, as you dont really use fogs much so not sure if a hid kit will be worth the money.

      Theres a few have converted to hid's now but personally i changed mine back to halogen. If you just want a look, go for LED's although they will look great, they give out naff all usable light
      My headlights kit from HID's direct is still going strong after 2 years and was about 70 quid

      I've just ordered a set of 7.5W LED's for my fogs, just waiting for them to come They were off ebay from hong kong but all my sidelights and LED's are from hong kong.

      I was thinking about HIDs in my fogs but then spotted these so will put pics up when i get them.

      The reason i'm using LED's in my fogs is beacause i think my 10k HID's give plenty of light down the dark lanes

      No probz mate..

      As for the LEDs, they will look slightly more blue than your 4300K HID's in your AFL's

      I want to go down the HID route. Just want to get a good kit that will work with the cars canbus and not flicker or burn out etc. As fot k temp like i say happy with the 4300k in my headlights so just want it all to match. Just worried about the glare it might cause. Also will it pass mot with hid fog lights?
