Thanks everyone! Quick question, I'm looking at the hid kit from xenondepot. When I get this kit which lights would be hid once installed. Also Size is H11 right? Thanks appreciate the help!

You can do either. I believe Nokya (as well as other manufacturers) makes yellow 9006 halogen bulbs. I personally haven't used them. I have a HID kit in my foglights. My color temperature is 3000K. I'm not sure what year IS you have, but for mine, the foglights use bulb size 9006. I think they changed the bulb for 2011, but don't quote me on this...I'm not 100% sure.

Memory seats and HID's were not really optioned together, well, not entirely, anyway. HID's only came on cars optioned with the luxury package or sport package. Memory seats is simply a way to identify a car optioned this way, along with power rear sunshade, heated/ventilated seats, and power tilt and telescoping wheel. Any of these options is a dead giveaway for a car equipped with HID. Of course, this all changed with the 2008 model year in which HID's became a stand alone option.

Hey Guys,
DenIS250: H11 would be the correct fitment to upgrade your low beams to HID with an HID kit.
If you are looking to get the most OEM/look and feel I would suggest going with a 4300k HID kit.
Fog Lights: If you are looking to upgrade your fog lights to yellow you can either go with a 3000k HID kit or our Putco Jet Yellow halogen bulbs.
Here are some pictures of the Putco Jet Yellow Halogen bulbs installed:

No problem.
Your vehicle has projector headlamps so I would personally suggest going with 4300k. The color will be bright white with a slight bluish tone depending on what angle you view the light from (same as OEM). If you do not want to see any "yellow" at all then I would suggest looking at 5000k.

So have you confirmed if they're halogen or not by using Jeff's suggestion (post #12) on how to check? You definitely want to confirm before buying an HID kit. And I certainly wouldn't take someone's word for it based on a photo as cameras can be very deceiving when it comes to color.
