Default Problem with 95 Ram HIDs for fogs?

I'm wanting to convert my halogen lights to 8000k HIDs in both my headlamps and foglamps. HIDextra has the set for my 9004 headlamps, but not for my 893 foglamps. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a set for 893 fogs that isn't too steep on price and isn't low quality. Thanks in advance!

There a a large number of threads on HID and fogs. You can go to FAQ/DIY and do a search to find them. I am sure someone has some info there.

Over time the factory fog housing will melt even with the 35w kit. How do I know? I did it on my truck. Also the factory fog housing is a reflector not designed for HID and will blind drivers just as much as HID in the factory headlights. I tried it for a while but ended up removing due to the light blinding others and myself in fog and spray.
