I am planning to replace both low beams and the fogs that came integrated in the headlight with VVME HIDs. What bulb types are lows and fogs?
Are they both H1? Or is one H1, the other H3?

From Daniel Stern Consulting "...Good (and legal) fog lamps produce white or Selective Yellow light, and use tungsten-halogen bulbs. Xenon or HID bulbs are inherently unsuitable for use in fog lamps, and blue or other-colored lights are also the wrong choice...."<ul><li><a href="http://www.danielsternlighting.com/tech/lights/fog_lamps/fog_lamps.html">Stern on Fog Lamps</a></li></ul>

Some folks say that HID highs will take too long to light up but my A4 HID lows are almost instantly on so I feel tempted to do both lows and highs on the A6.
