I bought the DDM HID fog light kit a few months ago, went with the 6000k kit, very slight blue hue. I also went ahead and bought new fog light housings.

Is the "Dual In/Dual Out" HID harness needed for the fog lights? I am researching on doing fogs and lows, so far I understand that the error elminator kit is not needed.

I mounted my ballasts on the frame rail right above the fog lights. I just used some heavy duty velcro to secure them.

i did it from the top. but thats because i dont have the bumper support/foam there to worry about anymore. its be best for you to go from the bottom. or take the bumper cover off.

http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/DD...ast-35W-or-55W

for fogs: select 35W
Choose bulb 880
select your bulb color (i did 5000K for super white)
you dont need the harness
or error code eliminator
