am running HID for my fog and yes it did give out a warning out light... if you want to change them directly... the bulbs are H11

as far as the DRL... they are H7

for the rings i went with LUX no warning error....

i've never messed with the xenons so sorry can't help you there...

+1 for highperformance fog kit, love mine...error free.

D1S for replacing your Xenons

+1 for Lux 5.1's for your angels, love mine

-100 for changing your DRL's, turn them off or get a Daoes angel eye DRL wireharness. Those bulbs are a total PITA to get at and I haven't found a good replacement that will come close to matching the Lux AE's.

If you have factory xenon headlights, you can purchase D1S Replacement Bulbs in 6000k, we offer them if you need a source.

u can just get a replacement bulb for the D1S (headlights) to 6000K.

Alpine is having a special on the HID Fogs and D1S if you are interested. Research my recent post, as I just have them installed on mine, and they look very amazing. Alex from Alpine is a great guy to deal with, you should have absolutely no problem with them at all.

Mu suggestion thou (just my 2 cents), there is really no point of changing the color of your D1S, unless you want to go for 8K+, anything below that all look pretty much the same as stock...but it's your choice.

Ive been running the lux 5.1 for months now and love them. They are the brightest on the market and customer service is top notch.

That is a harness that enables the rings to run all the time. The harness does not change the color of the rings, it enables them to run as DRLs.
