Sweet! What conversion kit did you use and what temp bulbs? Was there a problem fitting the bulbs and wire into the housing?
Cant wait to see the night results!

I will post pics of them hopefully tonight. The bulbs are the same temp as the ones on the headlights. I purchased the ballast off ebay for 150.00 they were for a Nissan Maxima. The install was only hard when you connect the bulb to the plug because it was little clearance but I manage get it to fit.

Yea! Post some pics and some details as well. Also, Can you run your fogs seperately from your headlights? Or is that a factory setup that you just used a conversion kit for?

I did this a few months back. I found it pretty easy. All I did was purchase the factory fog light kit, then I purchased this kit off ebay...... H11 HID ...This 4700K kit matches almost perfect. Pics are posted in my signature. Oh yeah and as far as the wiring...... Plug and play

If you could actually purchase the OEM fogs and etc... with just the housing instead of the entire thing. Then just get an H11 HID conversion kit. Then instead of using the wireharness that connects it to the factory wiring (Since factory wiring wont let you run fogs independantly), get a switch from honda that goes into one of the spare slots that are underneath the sunroof controls. Now of course these fogs wont go off with the ignition unless you wire them up to the ACC wiring. But it could be done.
Unless you've figured out a way to do this on the TSX like you did on your TL? Please share when you've figured it out.
thanks

Wouldn't it be nice to see an HID DRL conversion? I'd love to have that...
And when you hit your high beams, you'd see the road with the full glory of 4 HID projectors.
