Random Little Question Thread
Yes, that's how it is for all our G's.
I can see about taking one tonight. Although I don't have the 8k's on anymore.
And yeah, the leather OEM boot is what I was referring to. But honestly, it's just my opinion. You should mod your car the way you like.
Noticed you edited your post. You can't really do what you're wanted. Your low beam functions on it's own. Your high beam and low beam are the same bulb. However, when you get an HID kit as DVG pointed out you don't want your high beam to be an HID because it will burn out the bulb very quick, thus you lose high beam capabilities by going with a bulb designed just for the fog light (it doesn't have a dual filament like the OEM bulb does). You can buy a dual filament yellow bulb (I think) but your high beams will also be yellow. You can change the bulb to blue for the high beams, but your fog flights will be blue as well and that defeats the purpose of a fog light.

And okay, the low beam and high beam are 1 dual filament bulb, by the way i saw they looked, i thought they were 2 single filament bulbs.
bottom line,
will this hid kit
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HID-KIT-H1-H...cf06a3&vxp=mtr
work with this yellow bulb for foglights?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/H4-DT-3000K-...058f54&vxp=mtr
The reason i ask is because, they both say "lowbeam" i dont want to get both and only one work, i want it to look like yours, blue hid low beam, yellow foglight.
and H4 type bulbes for the hid and foglight right?
Thanks in advance!

yea, i understand what DVG said about not having a high beam hid because the time delay for it to warm up.

The HID kit I have is similar to what you posted, not the same brand, but same thing as what I have. Basically you'll lose functionality of your high beams but I've found the fog lights to be bright enough that I don't need high beams. And for the low beams I just upgraded my bulbs to 6k.
You have factory HID right? If so just buy some 8k bulbs for your low beams and then the H4 HID kit you posted. Might wanna check out what the vendors here have as well. They may be the same price or better quality/warranty.
What vendors do you speak of?
But the 2 links i posted will work together right?
like i can use the yellow bulbs as fogs and the hid kit as low beam right?

Just to clarify, since you guys have mixed these up a couple times. The upper reflector is the low beam. I think some 03/04 and all 05/06 came with a hid bulb here. Sold 03/04 had halogen.
The lower reflector is the fog light/high beam. No cars came with an hid here. If you want hids here, there are 3 options: best - retrofit a bixenon projector. 2. Ok - Get a fog light hid kit 3. bad - Get a bixenon hid kit. This will give weird reflections and ****. Don't do it. With bixenon, you keep both fog light and high beam. There is only one "filament" - in hids, this is actually a plasma capsule. The dual output function is actually the result of a plate which moves up and down to change the cutoff of the light beam

I am going to orders a low beam hid which will go in the top bulb area and
the yellow bulb in the low headlight area.
I was really getting confused here.
but, the yellow bulb says "lowbeam" will it fit I into the lower connector of the headlight?
If you do not have OEM HIDs:
Low beam = H1
High beam / fog light = 9003/HB2
If you do have OEM HIDs:
Low beam = D2R
High beam / fog light = 9003/HB2
I dont know what year your car is. Use this to find out your bulb sizes: https://www.sylvania.com/en-us/appli...n.aspx#fldYear
A bulb is a bulb, you just have to search for bulbs that are the same size. As long as it fits the socket, it will work
Im not sure what you mean. Here are the bulb sizes for 2003 sedans:
If you do not have OEM HIDs:
Low beam = H1
High beam / fog light = 9003/HB2
