I've had good luck with the DDM light kits on a few past cars. They sell a h8 plug and play kit. The only thing stopping me is I hate non projector HID kits.... It would pretty much render the lights useless as true fogs..

Fog Light Upgrade: 1 35w slim ballast H11 kit 8000k to match (I decided on this kit for both current draw and overall size for mounting purposes) *1pr of Error Code Eliminator kit (again $15.00 so why not do it upfront)
"Fogs were another thing, where to mount the ballasts and eliminators? First the parts from ddm don't come with any instructions but everything is plug-n-play and so simple to figure out. Everything else is super easy.
All you have to do is turn your wheels as far as you can to the outside of the side your. working on. (working on the right side, turn the wheels all the way to the right.) Pull 3 or 4 of the inner fenderwell plugs out.(4 makes it a little easier but not ness.) Simply unplug & remove the old bulbs. Plug all the components from ddm together (bulb-ballast-eliminator) Insert the new bulb into the fog light housing. Now for a nice suprise. Everything tucks neatly into the space behind the fog light. (a little touch of silicone helps to hold the ballast and eliminator in place but it's probably not ness.) Plug the factory connector into the new receptical. Put all your fenderwell plugs back in, and your done. It's that simple."
*Edit: I had one eliminator go bad and removed them both, you really don't need them, no codes.
And yes all hid bulbs require a ballast & igniter, with the factory setups these components are seperate, but with aftermarket kits the igniters are built into the ballast.
