It have diffrent headlight housing.., it dont have Foglight and HID... just Halogen Headlight blub and High Beam.. and Foglight have Filled Plastic Dome on it.. that why i did all COnversion HID/FOG headlight and Headlight Harness wires

Yea if you don't want hardly any light output. Nokya and most fogs are 3000k and don't have that high of ouput.
