Default HID Foglights

Has anyone put HID kits in their stock foglights?

Other than bling factor, you really do not want to have HID in the fog location. Even with the lower color temperature bulbs, they're still too far toward the blue scale.
I suppose you could go with the yellow lens film and get really bright yellow light.

Putting HID lamps in the driving light location would make the most sense.
