Anyone want some HID Fog bulbs?

OK, I'm a moron. I ordered a bunch of bulbs and things from V-LED (thanks for the coupon code by the way) and I also ordered a pair of fog lights. I didn't want the HID ones because I wasn't about to install a ballast and all that and I rarely use the fog lights anyways. I just wanted a pair of bulbs that came close to color matching. Of course, I bought the HID ones by mistake. Very confusing as I'm looking at the regular bulb socket then at the HID bulb and thinking "Uh, now this is definitely not right". lol. Anyways, my stupidity is your gain. Anyone need a pair of 5000k H1 Fog Light HID bulbs?? I think I paid 50 for them but you can have them for 20. Just shoot me a PM.
P.S. The rest of the bulbs went in no problem. Easy to get to them once you took the wheel off but for the fog lights you should absolutely go from the top. Much much easier. Just loosen one hose and take out one bolt and it comes right out. Oh take off the plastic extender for the wiper fluid, it pulls right out. Then you can just put it right back in when you are done. The interior bulbs were incredibly easy too. Love the new bulbs, especially the LED turn signal thing. Flashes brighter (and faster for some reason I don't understand) and there's no more ugly orange. The park light looks great in LED and I suggest that to anyone looking to replace.

I assume you got the blinker fix installed that we need for our Gs. It will simulate the load of the filament bulb and stop the rapid blinking.

You should have installed this one:
3 OHM 50W 4 BULB LED LOAD EQUALIZER RESISTORS TURN SIGNAL BLINKER FIX

Sorry, I should have specified. I bought these
V-HIDS XENON HEADLIGHT BULBS H1 5000K WHITE
but I don't have HID's just regular old fogs.
Oh and I don't really mind the fast blinking light to be honest. Is it illegal or something?

Fast blinking isn't illegal in TX as far as I know but clear/white signal lights are. Just one more thing for the officer to give you a ticket for. Good luck...

Oh they blink orange, very bright in fact. They just don't look orange. I'm going to leave it be. I really like them actually. LED's rock.
