I bought the projector foglights from ebay and then the H3 HID kit from VVME.com I don't think theres much of an advantage of H3 setup other than it's just a smaller bulb, but it does great I bought the H3 bulb HID kit in 4300K and I just drive around everynight all night with just my foglights on. It's freakin sweet

TNTSS,

Why did you convert to H3 HIDs? Are you still running stock Foglight housings? If not, what are you running? How hard were they to install and got pics?

Hell No, they look great and most importantly they match my headlight perfectly IMO. :-) I wish I would of done the 880 HIDs first before wasting my money on countless blueish blubs to try and match true HIDs. I'm just curious if anyone else runs them, i'm surprised i'm one of the few that does.

I actully have a clean set of capsules I plan on swapping here in a bit, mine are showing there age (160,000 miles). Although if I could find an aftermarket set that would work with the 880s I may go that route too. The 03 Limited Ed GPs had nice housings but there $100 a piece new! They do look good though...

I've got 6000k HIDs for my low beams and I plan to put in some Silverstars to my fogs to give them a similar appearance. Now worth it to install another set of ballasts just for fogs, IMO.

Silverstars won't even come close to HIDs 6k, trust me, It was the first set I tried!

My 6K HIDs headlight w/ Silverstar 880 literally made the Silverstar look like yellow piss, seriously. Don't waste your money on those. You can get closer with other blubs.
