Default Buying HID's for Fogs

Hey guys, i'm buying an HID conversion kit for my fogs on the GS350, i want them to match my 6000K Hids up top. Is this a good deal on ebay or can I do better. I new when it comes to the HID fog game. Thanks

For ebay, you can certainly find better prices. Just find out the bulb base of the fog lights and do a search for HID KIT 9006. I'm guessing 9006 is the bulb base of your fog housings.

You can also order a kit from a vendor, or I personally like DDMTuning, which is an actual store unlike many ebay vendors. But there's definitely cheaper 9006 kits out on ebay- that company is ripping people off by putting specific car models on it, but any HID kit will fit.

As for matching 6000K HIDs up top, it is unlikely that your bulbs will match perfectly. What with all the different bulbs that are produced under varying degrees of accuracy with regards to color temperature, the best you can hope for is probably a good match.

Good luck
