    Hey everyone, in a recent topic someone requested a DIY/How To, on fog HIDs...so this is what I did...

    You will need:
    -Phillips screw driver
    -double sided tape (3M tape)
    -4 to 8 tie straps
    -and of course your HID set....our factory bulb is H11


    Remove fog light cover and assembly

    Replace original bulb for HID bulb

    At this time test your fogs for any defects

    I found none so went on to place the ballasts. Put on some 3M tape on the ballast, clean with a damp cloth and then wipe down with rubbing alcohol the surface where you will be sticking the tape (on both the ballast and surface to house the ballast, I chose the spot in the white circle)

    Now secure with tie straps. I used 8 small straps, but if you have 4 large straps its all good anyways

    Finished project...
