Fog Lights for 2004 GP?

What fog lights have people put in their 2004+ GPs? I put in putco foglights, and while the lights are good, they are very hot and started to deteriorate the inside of the housing. Putco is sending me brand new fog light housings, so I want to replace the fog lights to make sure this doesn't happen again. What types of lights have you all been using? I'm trying to have a color similar to my Sylvania SilverStar Ultra's which are 4100K bulbs. Also, I want the bulbs to actually work, meaning light on the road, not just for visual effects. Thanks for any help.
 


Didn't put them inside of the housings :) I know Confusingboat was going to do a projector fog light retro fit inside of plan old turn signal housings.
 
Really?! No one knows what bulbs they have in their foglights or any suggestions for good white bulbs for 2004/2005 GP?:th_bangheadonwall:
 
Ive had 3000K HIDs in factory foglamp housings for over a year now with no deterioration. I dont see why you cant just go the HID route.
 


I'm looking at several different options right now, but getting input from people that have actually done these things to their car is the best information I can get.
 
anyone else, I can't believe we have so many people with 04/05 but very few are willing to just write down the type of fog light they have and how they like it.
 
All 04-08 GP's had the option of getting fogs. As for mine, I had a 5k HID kit in there for a while but I didn't like it because I was always getting flashed if I had them on. And I never ran them for just normal driving, just for when it was actually foggy or raining outside. I also didn't run them but for only 2 months on and off so I can't comment on HID's affect on the housing itself. Sylvania does make an 880 bulb in their Silverstar lineup. You may have to find them online somewhere though as I haven't had luck finding them in the local auto parts stores. I plan on doing a retrofit on my fogs one day. The Retrofit Source is "supposedly" coming out with an even smaller version of the Morimoto Mini H1 that would be good for small housings like our fog lights. No word on when they will be available yet.
 


Any other helpful suggestions for fog lights for my car that aren't too hot, still look white and don't require any wiring (as in bulbs only not kits)?
