    Hi so I have done a search to figure out if I have HID's or halogens and the answer is HID'S if you have fog lights...and it looks like I have and and I have a place for the fogs but no bulbs? Also the light out of the driver side is more yellow than blue so I assume halogens in that case! Help?

    If you have HIDs, you will have ballasts wired to the bulbs. Halogen bulbs don't have ballasts.
