I want to just use LEDs instead of spending $200.00 for a shop here to put the HID kits on.

I have the low beam headlights with HIDs and DRLs with LEDs....they match perfect. I want the fogs to match so all 6 lights look the same.

If these are the wrong LEDs to get me there, which ones will fit right into my factory sockets....?

NO, you need 880 bulbs not 3156/3157/....... those are for brake lights and DRLs not for fogs, find a similar style but with the 880 base.

Yea, thanks. I just found those 880's........

These them...? I don't remember them being two prong plugs when I changed the bulbs years ago.

Those will be just for looks and not actual output. None of the drop-in LED replacements will be as bright or shine as far as the stock Halogen bulbs.

I'm just really wanting to get them to match the HIDs I have and the LEDs for my DRL's.

I'll try them.

personally I went back to halogen, I had the LEDs in there for a little bit, maybe it was just the crappy chinese brand I had (which had like twice as many LEDs on the "bulb") but if I armed and unarmed the alarm more then once without cranking the car one or both of the LED bulbs would start flickering and sometimes that would continue after cranking the car and I would have to sit there and flip the fog light switch on and off till they went solid, the only way I could get them to be rliable is if I turned off the foglight switch when I turned the lights off then turned them back on when the car was running so they wouldn't get the flicker from the alarm light flash.

+1 what VIP1 says, they are for looks only.

here are some reference pics, pic "3" has the LED in the passenger fog and 6000k HID in driverside, pic "4" has stock halogen in passenger and same 6000k HID in driver, this also shows WHY NOT TO PUT HIDs IN STOCK HOUSINGS.

Maybe I'll just spend the $200 installed at the local shop here in town for a HID kit for the fog lights.
