hid fog lights
hid fog lights Hey every one I was wondering if anyone else has put HID fog light kits in? I just did mine and they look amazing. I have had one problem a 15amp fuse keeps blowing out? It wipes out my instrument cluster!!!!! I keep putting a new fuse in but that is not the fix! I think i will wire up a wire harness for them. Any comments????????
Thanks Hunter

It is not usually a good idea to put a larger fuse in any circuit. This is especially true if it takes some time for the fuse to blow - any fuse will protect against a dead short but an over-current condition can cause a fire if the fuse is too large.
