I've searched but no luck....

So i figured i'd be simple and change the license plate lights to LED blue's and they look sick. So simple but so hot so i've decided that i want to change my Fog Light's to the same blue. But a. i dont know which bulbs i need but i'm sure i can figure that out with a little more research and b. how the hell do you change the lights in the fog lamp? Do i have to take off the entire bumper??

No, you can swap bulbs without removing the lights. Search "lighting upgrades" and the thread you find will have a sort of step-by-step.

I'm not sure that I can help you with the first part because I'm not sure what you mean by "I'd be simple" and is "sick" good, bad, yellow or blue? Then the "hot" fooled me because it used to be "cool" but reading between the lines I gathered that you needed help with installing the fog lamps? From underneath the car reve a bolt or two and some plastic clips so that you can fold back the soft plastic cover under the lamps, from there you can get your hand in to change the bulbs to sick yellow, cool blue or hot red.

Theoretically you would not really be using them as fog lights if you go blue. Be careful because blue is not a US DOT legal color, and some local gendarmes do not look favorably on the blue lights. I would think yellow fogs might be better, more functional, for sure, but something I have not researched yet. I guess your state motor vehicle rules would be first to see if anything but white is allowed.

LOL too funny. The white lights in the license plate looks very "cool".

I plan on doing the same color as what i have in the plates just cause i think that would be a nice color to have since it will match with the plates and kinda with the head lights. I guess the fog install isn't as hard as i thought it would.

Fog lights aren't legally required in all states.

Nore03, forget the blue, HID them!

$50 kits readily available on ebay.
