Hi guys.I'm also planning to change my foglight bulbs to a brighter, blue-ish look.Are the bulbs H7? I found a set of bulbs: 6000-8000K complete xenon H7 fitting.Will these fit on my car (525D 2004) ? Nice installation guide btw.

Hey I just wanted to give a big thank you to the original poster of this thread and for his tutorial!
I just did this today to my e60 and this made it a piece of cake...literally 5-7 minutes a side. Was a nice opportunity to clean out a bunch of road crud that has found its way in there over time as well.
But to anyone considering doing this themselves, don't even hesitate as the instructions are spot on, and again props for the photos and write up as well.
I know most people here like matching their fogs up with their HIDs or whatnot, but I've always been a fan of yellow fogs myself. I went with Hoën Endurance H8 Bulbs that are 2500k. I've tried a lot in the past from the crap on eBay to PIAAs and I have to say these have nice output and a great color yellow. http://www.hoen-usa.com/ is their site, and they do make quality bulbs and are a bit cheaper than PIAAs at like $39 or so.Here's a couple of photos, although I don't think I really captured the yellow of them that well.
