Default lights

Since I have stock wiring, what type of white bulb should i get so that it doesn't damage my housing and wiring? Is silvania a good brand (autozone and kragen)?

what is the california on fog lights? I heard it is illegal to have them on when it is not foggy. true?

On the 5th gen accords, where is the OEM fog light switch mounted? where can I get that switch?

HID's may sound expensive but they light up the road like there is no tomorrow, its actually been researched that it produces less eye strain because it is a whiter light and easier to see, when I pull up against another car, their headlights look yellow...and the fake blue bulb hid look green.....go HID plus not only do they looks awesome but they are functional too just MO
