Quick question about replacing the H11 blub in the fog lights...

I want to put in a white light into my fog lamps (i hate the yellow light), but i don't really want to go through the whole process of installing HID's down there (nor do I want to spend that much money for lights that i don;t use that often anyway) and i was looking for a white alternative (such as silverstars, etc) but cannot find one online that is either street legal or looks like it will work (some of the 8 dollar bulbs online scare me).

Anyone have any ideas?

I like the idea of HID, i just don't know if i want to go through the trouble of installing them :-\

I can't seem to find Silverstar H-11's either. Do you (or anyone else) know of brands that make that type of bulb?

Windhaven and a few other guys here have the Hoen Xenomatch H11 Fogs. I haven't seen any pictures of what they look like, but I've heard from them that it matches the OEM HID low beams very well.

Might want to check 'em out:http://www.hoen-usa.com/city2.htm

I have a 2.5s Basic and i was wondering if you just put them in or you have to buy an HID kit for those.
