Question HID fog lights, projectors available?

Has anyone come across projectors that would fit into the fog light housing?

That’s not how projectors work, they are the headlight they don’t go into the headlight. If you want to build a retrofit you could probably fit Morimoto minis in there but we have led not hids in the fog lights anyway.

you have LED, why would you want old-tech HID?

Thought they were just halogen, didn't look, either way hid would output way more light than whatever LED they have in there.

The LED fog light on my 2017 RX 350 is one brightest and they are well aimed to give maximum downroad view.

Is there a reason you want to go HID instead of LED?
