fog light hid question

[JLw7123]

OK I am getting hids for the fog light were is the best place to mount the ballasts.

I mounted mine just above the fog light, however the ballast got water in them and blew the fuse for the fog lights :eek:

[falloutboy]

the best place depends on cable length :)
you want it near the bulbs, but away from anything.

The location were the headlights ballasts are mounted most of the times seems pretty good. (look in sticky I think)

I have mine mounted on the bumper just beneath the headlight housing, above the fog light.. No a good place as redog said water gets in there. On the other side i had water issues so i moved the ballast up closer to the battery but it was on the wall next to where you put windshield washer fluid.

Hi, what kind of a kit did you buy for the fogs?

[JLw7123]

well i have aftermarket fogs so i bought the h3 hid kit but i am pretty sure the stock fog bulb size is 894.

[Alerojester]

Yes that's the correct bulb but they don't sell a 894 HID so I ordered 880's but I'm unsure if they'll work.... Anyone care to help me out on this?

880 will work, that base bulb has many derivatives, of which 894 is one.
