What's the spec of the fog light bulbs?
I am thinking to get a pair of xenon 9006 with 55W 12v and 5000k from Ebay. I'd have no problem to just plug and play without extra conversion kit? And there should be no difference between getting fog bulbs and headlight bulbs as long as it is 9006. Correct me if I am worng. Thankssss

what is the wattage and all that with stock fog 9006 bulbs...its been a while since i messed with some bulbs.. but from what i remember is it 55w->130w = 2500k.... so that means it (draws 55watts, puts out 130watts, and the color is at 2500k level) right?
I'm trying to find the right set of bulbs but i don't want to mess with electrical current
I'm looking at something that goes 55w->95w 5000k

I assume the red connector is what I need to remove in order to change the bulb, correct? doesnt look like I can turn it because its kind of rectangular shape. just go brute force and pull the connector down?

you just twist the entire assemble counter-clockwise, the pull the bulb assembly back. Then press the tab on the red connector to release bulb assembly from bulb.
