It's not a good idea to put HID's in the foglights since there's no diffuser in front of the bulb and the oncoming drivers will be blinded. I put LED bulbs in my fogs since they aren't very bright and match my HID headlights perfectly.

i've herd good things from DDM for your lighting needs haha, but i would hed Don's warning people aren't gonna be happy with u blinding them, and if a cop decides to be a D-bag you can get a road hazard ticket or somting like that, at least if u live in ohio

^^Agree with Rob and Don on this. DDM for HID's, but I'd highly advise against doing it.

if you have those projectors, i am pretty sure you can put hid in there and have it work ok ( meaning you will have brighter light, it just wont be as focused and probly have a couple hotspots,)

but i am sure someone will chime it to agree or correct me on this.
