couple of nit pickin questions

Pretty sure these havent been asked be4... hopefully

#1 How come some models of the evo have projector fogs and some are the reflector type?

#2 How come the evo projectors are like a tinge of greenish color instead of clear?

#3 Has anyone tried putting in HID fogs into their cars?

You can do HID fogs. I have seen it done, and it looks pretty nice. The thread was in the show & shine forums somewhere.

1. It started with the RS as a cost saving thing and carried over.
2. Because the temp of the bulb.
3. I've seen it done as said above.

no one has projector fogs, they are 'fake' looking projectors but no lamp actually.
tint is an anti glare system new for 2006 from Stanley, who makes the lamps.
HIDs in the fogs is not recommended, its shrouded so youll get poor light distribution.
