Wow. Those fog lights are much brighter than the old brown ones. Won't even need the "air brake" headlights anymore.

It comes with a pair of bulbs and ballasts. U have to take off the stock lighting from the OEM housing and replace it with the HID bulb. If not you can buy a separate housing but I think it looks ugly as ****

So i can just buy my HID's and just put them in my stock housings correct? But wouldnt this scatter light everywhere or do the stock housings do alright with the HID's in them?
