Default HID Fogs? Exist Yet?

So I have 6000K Hi/Low HID's in my rcsb and I wanna put 6000k Fogs in. Wonderin if they still haven't done a kit or if anybody has figured out a way to mod them so you can run an HID setup?

Yes sir i dont know why they did that but its weird cuz the bulb has the clip built in to it so its hard to find anything so you have to modify it to work

You dont need to use silicone seal them. I followed the below write up with a 9005 HID (had a set leftover from my old truck and didn't want to wait for 880 bulbs to come in) and it works great! I had to trim the black plastic from around the bulb with a dremmel (see pics), but have had no problems with moisture or anything. Works and looks great!

Well i like the idea of using the factory retainer but does not look to strong. Looks like I have some work ahead.

My next question is there a mod where i can keep my fogs on when my highs are on?

It is actually pretty strong, I tried pulling them out and they didn't budge.
