HID bulbs in the inner headlights will be way too bright, you'll be shooting glare all over the place. Besides, it's way too tight down there to mount an HID bulb. The 9006 HID bulb will fit but where would you mount the base?

If I were you, I'd just go with HID fogs.

well, you were asking about the parking lights and replacing the wedge bulbs with an hid kit...

that's different than replacing your high beams with HID... if you use the high beams all the time - go for it. but it would most likely be a rarely used thing.

what do you think about bosch hid conversion kit it is for $149 , do you think its ok ?

if no then what do you suggest , my budget is around $200

do you think that 8000k would be great for my fog lights ?

thank you

man........ youre seriously bouncing around all over the place. 2 people have said yes to hid fogs. i am curious as to how it works, since the fogs have refracted lenses, wouldnt that cause major glare for daily driving? or is it at a level low enough that highoutput light will be ok?
