Ok, but which lights are you referring to though? When I look at the headlight assembly, which are the parking/city lights?

Those lights on the link say "H.I.D." on them, are they ok to be used for the non-HID fogs? Im a novice at this lighting stuff as you can see...

There the small bulbs that come on in the highbeam enclosure area when you turn on your headlights.
Best way to show you is go turn on your low beams.They're small bulbs that will be on in the highbeam area in the top corner.

Those bulbs I posted are NOT HID.
Ignore the HID on the box.I think it's HID rated brightness or something.I don't remember.

I've seen the write-up on how to change the fogs out, but how easy/difficult is it to change out the parking lights and high beams?

^^^ Yeah I read your thread about this. Did you get the bulb replaced free or did you have to pay for it? Just do like others told you and wear gloves and Im sure you'll be ok!

My lighting mods are as follows:

Factory HID's (adjusted higher because they were way too low from the factory)
PIAA fog light bulbs
DRL's turned off by dealer
Removed bulbs for parking/city lights.

I have run this setup for a few months and it looks great, performs great, and I have had no issues whatsoever.
