probably doesnt apply to us.

we dont have FOG lamps.

we have external map lights

its unlikely our housings could support the heat from a HID lamp.

Either way, somebody email them... see what they say.

Thx for the link.

when you read the faq they sound fishy and it says that all HID's not installed from the factory are not DOT approved.

Pretty cheap for aftermarket HID's I think the PIAA's are $1200 + install.

They'd be great for IS 300's and other vehicles not endowed already with HID headlights, but more HID's we don't need.

Now, some dichroic yellow projector driving or fog lights might be useful though. One of these days I'm gonna rip out the groady roadies and put some in.
