Miller812 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Well do you want white, white with a hint of blue, light blue, bright blue? I personally like the 10k witch has a good amount of blue with the 55w hids. Hid fogs are awesome and I dont think there that bad to hook up Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller812 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 I've herd that some have them tucked up under the computer on both sides. Just crawl under the truck and look around and see if you can see a plug hangin on both sides. If ya see some then your good but if not you'll need to get a kit. Get an oem kit from your local chevy for I think a little over 100 or 200. It comes with all the factory wiring, the switch, and the fog lights.

Eddie Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 The brightness is determined by the the wattage i.e. 35w or 55w The color is the 5k,6k,10k,etc. The fog lamps are not hard. you'll need the switch, fog lights, relay and some wiring. And definitely put HIDs in those too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller812 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 wait my truck has a fog light button does that mean i still a switch im kinda confused but im only 17 You sure its not just your cargo light. It seems alot of people get it confused. if you have a fog button there will be two buttons to the right of your headlight switch on there own panel Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got that mixed up too when I first bought my SSS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diggerdan11 Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 I have heard it can be a pain the the butt to install fog lights in the SS. Thats if you want to go for a stock setup. Aftermarket ones are easy. When it comes to 35 w HIDs the Higher the Kelvin rating the more blue they are and the less light they actually put on the road. 3000k are bright yellow (great for fog lights), 4300k are white (stock HIDs are usually 4300k) 5,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 get more blue and blue as you go up. Then they start getting purple and then eventually green. Now 55W Hids are on the same scale just the colors are a little different. a 10,000k 55w is closer to a 6000k 35w in color I have 10,000k 55W HIDs in my lows and Love them. I have 8,000k 35W in my Highs (sorry no picture) and they look bluer than the 10,000k 55w Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 To put oem fogs in u just need to fab up a bracket, very easy, theres a few threads on them already Plus they look sexy as hell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
