Since the Headlights are HID's, what do you guys recommend i should do to get my fog lights and high beams to look the same color? Should I just get an HID kit for both or are the Ultrastars I have now the best I can have?

Thanks

i did the HID kit for the fogs and 4300 bulbs

i changed out my headlight bulbs to 10000K and i think im going to go yellow hid in the fog lights.

10000K really? Are there street lamps everywhere you drive?

Laiho13

That's what my headlights are. Are the H I D's stock? I bought mine from someone after it had hit a deer and the headlight was replaced

probably because they couldn't see the deer with poor light output.

Ditch the 10000k and get something <6000K.

HID's are stock and the stock temperature is 4300k because that's the best light output, not to mention puts out less glare to other drivers unlike higher temps.

Any idea of where to get a good deal on them? 80 bucks a kit isn't too flattering

i didn't change the bright and check eBay for the kit fog i think is 9006

Yea how much did you guys pay for you HID Fogs?

I agree with this member. I'd even say the best updated color which can be a hard find is 5000K which gives a whiter light with a slight bluish hint compared to fully lit 4300K. The amount of light (lumens) stay close to stock. As far as the fogs, I wouldn't do HID'S I
in those housings that were made to support heat coming from 15-watt(incandescent) bulbs. If anything go with 30-watt 2500k (thats yellow) halogen bulbs. Even then you may have to drill a few micro-holes in the back of the housing to vent the 30-watt bulbs.

Plenty of members here upgraded their fog lights to HIDs, along with doing the lexan fog lens mod. The stock lenses are weak and are very common to break.

My fogs broke so i replaced them with the aftermarket one's from eBay because the lexan didn't work and i have 4300k HIDs for years and no problems put rockblocker on the glass

Im Running: 8000K 35W Lows + Fogs and 55W Highs 5000K.. As much as I would like Use highs I rarely need them in most situations...

The Conservative bunch will said stuff like More than 6K is Useless and blah blah blah... Just try them for yourself dont let anyone change your mind.. In real Life most HIDs up to 8000K will light up more than any Halogen High Beam Light will ever do.

Now 10K it is pretty dumb not becouse of how Little lumens they give out but becouse of the super BLUE color that blends into the dark roads this has nothing to do with lumen output more than a color spectrum issue but there is too much info about it on several HID related threads on Acurazine if you wanna know more just use search.

And to ADD HID Bulbs heat up the same as an Halogen Bulb so the Myth of Melted Fog housing is just only that, A MYTH... You can Safely use even 55W HIDs on the Fogs remember that is the Same amount of heat for the same given Watts so if a 100W Halogen Bulb is damaging the Housing a 100W HID bulb will do the same.
