Fogs mod

Anybody consider modifying a Sylvania SilverStar 9005 bulb to fit in the stock 9006 fog socket?

Apparently, this is a hot Integra mod for their low beams, since the 9005 bulb is 65W and the 9006 is 55W. I think the ends of the two bulbs are different also. Should be ~ 4200k, so should color match our stock hid low beams.

Yes, that's what I did with mine...use a dremel tool and take away the little tap inside the light socket to make it fit. Have been running for like 4 months without any problem.
