Hook up the fog to turn on as DRL's so they turn on when the car is on. thats what one of the member here did.

That is NOT correct. The Angel Eyes are H8, not H7. The Fogs are H11. The xenons are D1S. Look back at some of my earlier posts.

More importantly, it's all about the grooves and how the notches align up, so they fit within the light housing. This is how the various types of bulbs are different. This is key, so that they easily fit and match into the sockets of the light housing.
