Fog Lights to Match HID Headlights Mod
I really do not like the color difference between the HID headlights and the fog lights. The fog lights look very 'yellow' compared to the headlights. So, I installed a set of Hoen High Performance Halogens. In the following photo, the fog light on the left has the Hoen bulb, the one on the right (as you are looking at the photo) has the original bulb:
Here is a side by side comparison of the two bulbs:

Remove the pins from the lower fender liner then gently pull back on it. You will be able to reach in and remove the connector and then remove the bulb.
