I just installed a set of Morimoto XB LED fog lamps from The Retrofit source. The fit was exact. Apparently many manufacturers use the same fog light housings in their vehicles.

Removing the fog lighs was much harder than I anticipated. They are screwed in from behind. I removed the fog light bezels and headlights but really the only way to reach the 2 screws holding the fog lights in place is to go through the bottom behind the bumper. Even then I needed a 90 degree angled screwdriver. Even if you some how manage to unscrew the fog lights from the top they are still too large to come out even with headlights removed. They can only be removed from below.
Wiring was basically plug and play, the LED fog lights come with H11 connectors that slip onto wires coming out of the fog light. You should test the wires for which is positive and negative, it doesn't matter on halogen bulbs but it might make a difference with LEDs.
Unlike HIDs there is no ballast, and no resistors needed. I received no dipped beam faults or any other warnings from the car.
The color is a perfect white 5000k. If you're looking for something very blue then this is not the way to go. The cutoff is very clean (I will have to take some photos later). There is no glare when viewing head on. I'd say brightness is very comparable to an HID.
More pics to come.
