I just finished a project with a friend on his MB, we had success in converting its foglights into HID, and visibility amazing.
Now, i'm considering using 6000k- 8000k on my RL, but a bit worried about the generated heat and its effects. Do you think the foglight lense can withstand a 8000k HID bulb.

 

i called my shop and was told that if the foglight lense is glass not plastic and the housing is metal, i shouldn't have a problem.
Now, i know that the fog lense is glass, but how about the housing?
last time i checked it wasn't plastic, but can anyone help and confirm.
I'll probably run 6000K

 

HID's generate less heat than traditional lights-even fog lights.

 

ok, i'm installing the HID next Friday and i'll post pictures.

 

Pictures and bulb/ballast info please!

 

If you like the purple look and you don't care about the performance of the light too much , then use 600K-8000K bulbs. If you want light performance then use something close to 4500K

 

The Hid kit was installed on Friday, and the difference is huge from the stock bulb
My car is in service, i'll post pic's when i get it back

 

The pictures are up in Honda Front Grill thread
Mod will you please merge the two threads

What brand of light did you use and what part number?

 

Nice. What did this all cost?

 

I wish to change to HID bulbs from my stock bulbs in my RL fog lights . What brand and part number bulb did you use?

 

I have answered that question somewhere here before.
I totally forgot how much i paid and what brand was installed

 

cool was thinking of doing the same
