Anyone try these HID bulbs?

I've been looking to get HID bulbs/conversion kit for my fogs, I want them to match my headlights (I have an 06 coupe with HIDs)...

Has anyone tried these?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/XENON...m220234838637&

If they arent good, are there any options out there to get HIDs for the fogs and match them to the HIDs in the headlights?

Also what is the power output on the stock HID bulbs?

Do not under any circumstances install an HID retrofit kit into the fog reflector housings. It will cause significant glare for other drivers and make you a douchebag. The only good options are to find halogen bulbs that closely match the HID color, or to do a projector retrofit in the foglights. Search IvoryGT's retrofit work

OEM Phillips 85122+ bulbs are 35W. Kelvin temperature is between 4100K-4300K. I forgot the exact temperature.
