Do you think the 5000k kit would perfectly match the tsx, it looks close: http://www.xenonking.com/5000.htm
How long did it take you to install?

Is the kit easy to install? will it just fit the oem fog light opening for the bulb? Is it available in 2300k? I think yellow xenon fog will look better and more useful.

if you click on the link in post#5 you will see everything they have to offer. As far as the install.......... It is very simple, pretty much plug and play. But I am very anal about the way my wiring looks so it took me longer than most to get it done. But still very simple

Upgrading the foglights to HID is actually a pretty good idea... but it's still for cosmetics and less funcitonality UNLESS you found a way to seperately control the fogs from the headlights.

fog lights are suppose to be used during fog time 
and.....HID = bad for fog

the only bulb color that will cut through the fog is yellow or gold. the factory bulbs are just the standard halogen bulbs used more for driving than fog. if you look at aftermarket they mostly list fog lights comming with yellow bulbs and driving lights comming with clear bulbs. you should also consider the percentage of your driving....... how much driving in fog do you do compared to normal weather. if you come across fog that is that thick your headlights could impear your vision also, you know since HID's arent good for fog driving.

if you are saying 4 HID > 2HID I hear you
that's if you want it to be really bright
You just need to remember to aim your FOG HID down so you won't blind the oncoming traffic.
factory foglight is fine if you want the true fog light.
if you want to "upgrade" you fog light just get the yellow bulb halogen you were talking about.
