Default Changing Fog Lights

Anyone have experience changing the 4GS fog lights? What type of bulbs do we need and do we need to take off the bumper? I just recently bought 6000k D4S bulbs for the headlights and would like to match the fogs with it.

4GS fog lights take H11. So get the Xentec H11 6000K Kit to match your headlights. Xentec is good enough and cheap too. Save $$$ for other mod.

Xentec uses DC ballasts to power AC bulbs. They will work but not for a long time. Xentec has been an ebay vendor / brand for a while that constantly changes components as they are always on the hunt for a lower priced item. Obviously i'm biased when it comes to HID kits however there is a reason we have been a trusted seller of HID kits since 2001 and a supporting vendor on this board since 2004.

im no expert in this area, but if what Steve says is true, then why would you put an inferior product into your brand new 4GS? not to mention, you should support our sponsors who help keep these boards running for free
