Default For those with OEM HID's

I have a 2011 FX4 with halogen headlights. I bit the bullet and got some OEM HID's to replace them with. What do you do for the fogs? Do the OEM HID models come with a different bulb than what mine did? I'm just looking to somewhat match the light color for the fogs with the HID's.

Recommendations?

I wasted quite a bit of $$$ trying to get a fog with the same color and hit the mark with Hoen xenon bulbs.

Here's a link, http://www.hoen-usa.com/fog.htm

The is also the Morimoto XB LED fog lights that are very close to the stock HID's. They are also significantly better than the stock fogs which were boarderline useless.

I went this option a few weeks back and love them so far. Not quite the same color but close enough for me, especially compared to the halogen fogs it had before.

The Hoens are close, but the off-axis color changes differently than the HIDs, so you'll see variations, depending on angle. I haven't found anything better, yet.

I used a drop in hid kit with 4300k bulbs and they matched pretty good. Only downside is the plugs aren't as tight in the housing. I'm going to replace the bulbs I have in there since one burnt out and create a spacer to tighten up the fitment of hte bulbs in the housing.
