So i have to ask what the whole hype is about getting hid fog lights. do you really need them, if you are unsatisfied with the hi and low beam then i dunno what to say, i personally hate ppl that have fog lights on period. they are an even bigger nuisance then someone driving and forgetting to turn off their high beams. I'm just gonna spend money on an led light bar that puts out something like 30,000 lumens , those are my 2 cents. id say waste of money for fog lightts, unless you want someone to turn around and pull out outta your vehicle and smash your fog lights with a baseball bat just saying lol.

Correctly aimed fog lights with hid bulbs are amazing and not annoying to others. My 2 cents

I agree with 09silvhids (not that it matters what I think). I'm not seeing the attraction with HIDs, but I do have LED fogs and to tell you the truth I haven't noticed that much difference between the LEDs and stock. Cars/Trucks that have HID headlamps are very annoying IMO. I think the stock Headlights are very good -- really good on high beams. I very rarely use fogs.

The ones that are annoying are the ones that put HID bulbs in the stock housings that aren't designed for them. If you have a housing that's meant for HID bulbs and they're aimed right then they are not annoying. More auto makers just need to start putting HID bulbs in the cars from the factory. There was the same reaction "OMG those are annoying!" when we switched to halogen bulbs back in the day.

I personally like the way they look and I like the extra light. I had both on my last truck and I'm going to on this one. I know how to properly aim them.

Sorry, CountryBoy12. Looks like this went off topic!

I have not purchased from HID Guy. I bought my low beam HID's before HIDGuy became a sponsor here. However, I have reveiwed their business, and it looks good. Plus, he has spent good money to be a sponsor here, so I am sure he's willing to stand behind his product. I will buy my HID fogs from him when I can save a few pennies!
