    Hi

    Posted before but just purchased and in my garage is an 04 black prius.

    Will get a gta car kit for my music.

    And plan on a HID kit this a single bulb with dual beam correct?

    Also add tint and led interior

    Thinking of adding led to headlight but I think that is more complex to install for me not sure

    Would like to add fog lights how hard?

    A good exterior detail

    Don't know what else

    It is a dual filament bulb, yes so if you had HIDs, you will lose the high beam (unless you retrofit with a proper movable shield for high beams). With a multireflector setup, I would strongly recommend a retrofit (if only as a courtesy to other drivers as a multireflector halogen housing is not designed for an HID unit. You'll need an OEM multireflector HID housing unit from a 2006-2009 Prius or an aftermarket retrofit with projector lens).

    Fogs should be fairly straightforward but you will need a different lower grille with the foglight cutout to house fogs. You should be able to pick one up cheaply at the junkyard.

    A BT underbody brace could help with handling (replacing the thin OEM unit). There are several members here to have it installed.
