Default HID Fog lights

I'm thinking about getting a set of oem fog lights and put a set of hids behind them. So my question is has anyone had any problems with doing so such as cracking of the housing or anything like that?

People do it all the time. If you've got a 99-00 civic it's an H3 HID kit.

Like wise im ordering a h3 hid for my coupe also. I think you get a chance to get yours in before me, so if you have any tips on how to install them once you get around to it i wouldn't mind hearing them. Thanks

Or if anyone has some help info. that would be a big help also

No u need to drill a hole in the back no matter what fog light housing your using, as HID bulbs have a longer back to them then regular bulbs. They thick out about a half inch to an inch from the back plate, just use caulking to make it water tight, I did mine 2 years ago and no problems, its easy to do
