I think that the question was about installing HID fogs -- not HID headlights.

The answer is that it is a quick process. Brabusw209amg installed mine and it went fast. I believe that he's posted a DIY of installing HID fogs. Get them. It is a terrific looking upgradee and gives so much more light.

hmmm... so, there are no 'just a bulb' replacements for the fogs so that the fog light is not yellowish? It may not be as bright as HID, but at least it's not yellow.?.

You can just replace the bulb with an LED size bulb http://store.ijdmtoy.com/LED-Fog-Dri...9005_sku45.htm if you dont want to have HID installed

yupz I like HID, if you want to save money for other mods then go with just switching the bulbs.
