Default hid's and fogs

I have a 93 da with the jdm one peice headlights, the fogs have yellow bulbs and I have 8k hids, I was curious about puttin in yellow hids in place of the yellow fog bulbs, but looking at the headlamp assembly im not sure what bulb to use. Has anyone ever put hid's in da fog lights?

The silvania web site has a list for almost every bulb size for almost every car's light. But im assuming thats where you got it from in the first place. haha. But thats where i looked mine up.

Putting HIDS in there vs. keeping the yellow bulb isnt going to change anything, because the JDM DA housings have a yellow capsule inside the body of the light. I would just leave them alone.

Yeah, I figured out which bulb it is, I am now just wondering about how good it would look. Chris G. is right though. They do have the capsule so I guess the h.i.d. would be dulled out by that anyways. Plus it kinda seems like too many more wires to deal with.
