has anyone upgraded their h11 foglights to HID?

 

its not a trick question

I saw a couple of m3's with HID in their foglights and I thought it looked awesome

but I guess no one has done this yet

 

Nope. :D

 

nope

 

ok, i was just discussing this with a buddy of mine who owns a ford lightning and the actual hid bulb we have came into question... what intensity do we have?
6,7,8000 K or what, cuz if we find this out, we'll be one step closer

 

I'm guessing 4300K, thats almost the OEM standard for any make/model.

 

I was wondering about this as well, sure would make a sweet functional as well as cosmetic upgrade.

 

The 4300K 600K 8000K number has little to do with intensity. It is the color temperature in degrees Kelvin of the light source........Higher #'s are more towards the blue spectrum and lower #'s are more towards the red

 

Can't we just put a set of silverstars in there? Sorry if it sounds cheap, but I just can't justify spending a few hundred bucks for a foglight HID conversion...

 

They don't make Silverstars yet for the two bulb sizes we need for the 8.....soon I hope. They are great bulbs....give great white color....with good intensity. A lot of the "blue white" bulbs suck as they look good....but you loose a lot in drivability

 

yes i have a kit that can fit in that housing.. but its a total retro fit

 

what do you mean thew??
how much

I have fake HID or white bulbs in my fogs already but HID is worth the price

 

I upgraded to HID fogs

 

Post pics of that dude!

 

Where from and how much?

 

I'll post a thread tonight after I take pictures.

 

Sweet, thanks dude!

I have 6K HID fogs in my Audi and will be transplanting them into my new RX.
