Default Basic Halogen vs Xenon FOG LIGHT question...

Hey guys...Just have a simple question about replacing the original Halogen FOG LIGHTS with Xenon bulbs. Are they "Plug 'n' play"...just twist 'em in, or is other modification necessary? Again, this is just the FOG LIGHTS, and not the headlights.

Thanks!

I had it done to mine by Bryan at Batee.com when I had the instrument cluster repaired. Other than maybe the socket itself, the rest is plug and play. If you have bi-pin bulbs, the sockets will have to be changed, if not then likely can just pull the bulbs out of the sockets and plug the new ones in. I'm talking the 4 main bulbs here.

Hope that helps.

Hi...I appreciate your reply, but are you talking about the bulbs in the dash cluster?
