Question Audi Style HID Fog Lights?

Hey guys I am looking to buy fog lights like these to fit on my front bumper, since there is so little room for them. Also, I want them to be a direct plug in and be in HID. Does anyone know where I could buy them? Thanks.

the closest ive seen people do is buy strips of LED and put it where the fog lights should be.

^^ Sorry I wasn't specific enough. What I am looking for is something like the Piaa Deno 3 or most likely the Deno 6, but with HID bulbs instead of LED. When I said direct plug in, I meant that I didn't want to have to fabricate or solder anything. Using an HID conversion kit would be fine. I want HID over LED because I want there to be a big amount of light output, like Rotary Rasps HID Fogs. Would LED fogs come anywhere near this kind of output?

they'd be bright to the eye can see but they won't shine as bright for visibility.

thats not gonna happen. thats way to specific of a task. to have them in that style, with hid, with good light output, and to have them be plug and play is really a tall order

Yeah I had a feeling that was going to be the case since I couldn't find any HID fogs in the the style I want. Are the real Audi Fogs HID? if so, how hard would if be to hook them up? I know one guy on this forum has them.

Thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for, but I might try to find better prices. Now... eventhough they are LED's, will these have better light output than say the Piaa Deno 3 or Deno 6? Also, how much work would it involve to connect these to the factory foglight harness? Will these fit where the oil coolers are? That is where I plan to mount them.
