HID question

I have the HID headlights & the foglights are just a regular color headlight. I think it looks retarded being two totally different colors..Is there a bulb I can replace in the fog lights to make them appear as close to the HID headlights as possible?

Google this "PIAA 19224". I think that's the bulb you're looking for.

I think all 3.2 CL-P/CL-S come stock with HIDs

This might come in handy when you get the bulbs:

edit: I know the diy says polarg m6, but a few members here have found that those bulbs burn out faster than the PIAAs

That may be true, but the PIAA's that I had in my car were crap, both sets. The blue coating flaked off. I hated them. I thought the all white look would be cool, but after the blue coating came off, it was an off white color, and I couldn't wait to go back to the yellow bulbs.

I had PIAA's for a while and they matched beautifully. I then grew tired of having "foglights" and put in the '03 inserts.

I recall someone calling them "marker lamps" instead of actual foglights, or roadlamps..

Road lamps would be correct.

the lights you speak of are not fog lights. they are just lights. Like your turnsignals. google superbriteleds and find a brite led light(possibly blue, although it might be illegal) they come in all colors. check it out
