RE: Best Bulb to match fogs to factory HID?
Found it...
Its not that bad house. Its rather simple just hopefully you have skinny hands! The most important part is to make sure the back is sealed when you clamp the back cover back on. If its not sealed the lights will leak and have condensation in the lamp. Just look in there and there are two metal loops, 1 to the left of the housing and than one closer to the fender. Remove those and pull the back cover off and you will see the bulb sitting there. Undo the electrical connector and than undo the two little metal rods holding the bulb in there! Pull the bulb out and replace with a new one-DO NOT TOUCH THE BULB!~ You can use latex gloves if need be. Your best bet (if you have regular halogens, not HID) just buy the regular sylvania halogens as many people on here including me have had problems with other bulbs blowing. I've installed any h1 type bulb and have had no luck whether I spend 14 dollars on a pair of bulbs or buy the sylvania silverstars which are some of the most expensive halogens on the market. If you need pics let me know.
IF this doesn't do it here's the link to that post...
