Options of foglights on non-HID/foglight equiped evos

Well my car didn't come with HIDs/foglights and i was looking to upgrade both but the headlight doesn't seem to have a spot of them (unless mounted under the headlights). I was looking into some 3000k HID fogs and 8000k low beams. What bulbs do the foglights use ? Do i have to modify the headlight? anything else i should know about having to wire it up?

Thanks in advance for any help on the subject.

I think if you do a search on this subject you will come up with a bunch of other threads. Fogs on an Evo are basically a total upgrade of your total lighting system.

Right. IF you don't have factory fogs, you are going to have to add conventional style self contained foglights somewhere else.

Usually people who add foglights to their non HID cars buy JDM MR Headlights, modifying the headlights without the fog lights mean cutting that piece out flipping it over and then cutting a hole in the center to fit the fog light bulb into it. That piece once you flip it over has to be reflective on the inside as well so it works properlly, and yes I'm talking about the little cover where the fog light usually is.
