where to find foglight xenons?

Are these the same as the headlamp? I been trying to find some on ebay, but it seems the headlights are all listed as foglights..Am I missing something here?

Xenon HID Conversion kits for 02-06 Fog light bulbs are H11's. But you can double check your application here: http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProd...de/default.htm


I have purchased two kits from this seller in last few years. These are 10 dollars with 39.00 shipping.....( don't ask )

Kits work great. At check out you have to specify bulb size and Color you want. I have 10,000K replacement HD bulbs for low beams so I purchased matching bulbs for Fogs.

I believe if you are looking for a match to your OEM Xenons, you would be looking for something close to the 4500K range.

http://cgi.ebay.com/HID-KIT-XENON-CO...4.c0.m14.l1262

And a how to ( sorta ) here:

I paid 40 dollars for this Siemens HID kit / shipped. IMO, they beat any of those PIAA bulbs which I have already tried, and these are half the price......
