    Default Retro fit xenon fog lights

    Got a spare pair of xenon bulbs and power packs from standard headlights, going to have a go at fitting them to the fog lights tommorow, anyone tried this? or see any problems arising?

    Would it not be easier to fit a HID kit?

    Having brighter fog lights will make it more difficult to see when it's foggy, so fitting them will defeat the object of their intended use.

    Unless you're someone who thinks it's cool and hip to drive around with them on during the day in bright sunshine?
