Has anyone that has HID's in their fogs had a problem with the foglight housing melting? Just noticed this today. Both of my fog light houseing are melted where the bulb goes in.

People do it, I think the trick is to make sure your using 35w ballast.

mine did this as well .. best thing would be to pick up a set of LT1 fogs as they are made of glass, all you have to do is use your LS1 mount for them

I had one melt from a regular 880. The trick is to only use the fog lights... in the fog. (It's too bad, cause they look great when on.)
