    So im planning on getting the 6000k raptor kit from ddm tuning HID Kits, BMW Aftermarket Bumpers & Lighting, DEPO - DDM Tuning
    On that screen it gives you list to pick everything you want. I was wondering if i will need the HID harness, error code eliminator, or the adaptor cables? Also i want to match the 6000k color in my fog lights with out putting hids in them. What kind of bulb will give me that color?

    All you need is the HID harness.

    As far as the colored bulb, I have no idea.

    But I'm going to order my HID kit soon as well

    Get the Harness
    You don't need the error eliminator
    The adapter cable is for adapting an H1 to an H7... You don't need it.

    Brian, you misunderstood.

    He wants a regular Halogen bulb for his fogs that will match the 6k HID color...

    Ahh, I see. You may want to try Sylvania Silverstar Ultra bulbs. They'll be about the closest to HIDs you can get as far as color and output. They aren't the least expensive bulbs though...

    Super White H1 H3 H4 H7 H11 9005 9006 9007 Xenon Headlight Foglight Bulbs
    What do you think of these, they're pretty cheap too

    Give em a shot, for $14 what can it hurt? You could also look into LEDs as well.

    Thats what i was thinking but i dont think they have the right size, grand prix's need 898 bulbs for the fogs right. And yeah LEDS are my second choice, but they're pretty expensive and then i have to f*** with resistors.

    You don't need load resistors for fog light LEDs, only if the LED is for a turn signal.

    Yeah, the fogs are 898.

    881 = 886, 889, 894, 896, 898 have the same base PGJ13, different wattage. These are single filament bulbs and use as fog light bulbs.

    The difference in the base is minor if I remember right.

    It's always a good idea to get the wiring harness for any car, that way you don't fry the stock wiring of your car. While unlikely that you will, better to be safe than sorry.
