Default LED fog lights

i have the projector fog lamp ( with air scoop) in my bumper and the previous owner put in a HID kit. It works intermittently and I wanted to swap the ballast and light out for a led style light. It switches on from the factory fog light switch on the dash. Has anybody done this? I feel like the HID is a bit overkill and the light pattern is really bad and super bright

i have two connections. the one on the right i assume is the factory fog lamp connector, the two smaller on the left connect to the HID bulb and come from a ballast -that is the current switched setup. can i just plug a led bulb into the one on the right?

Won’t be plug n play but you should be able to power the LED bulb through that plug if you can find a way to pair up the connection.

Both plugs would have originally been like the right hand one, you could still use that plug if you wanted DRL's

The plug you have your finger on is the marker light. It wouldn’t be used in a HID setup. There are two bulbs on the original fog setup, one for the projector and one for the small marker light. Look for a round plug that may have been adapted or removed to plugged into your HID ballast.

How I have my LED fogs set up. Purchased on ebay for about $130, I think the fit and finish is pretty good. The LED's used are the same as used for the map light and rear license plate light.
