got foglight?

1st. Does anyone have the 01-02 foglights that they would care to sell (lens,bulb housing, and a little bit of wire) PM me a shipped price OR will trade for my 03 vents.

2nd. Does anyone know what size HID bulbs replace the factory ones (fogs) without modifying it?

F**k it.

3rd. Can you tell me the size of the low and high beams as well?
I'll just order all three at one time.

No guesses please. THANKS

our headlights use a D2R bulb, you can find them in various K ratings.

I think the highbeam buld is a 9005.

when i used to have polargs, they would melt the tops of the housings, so I would think an HID bulb would have NO problem.
