On the first post it says that our fog lights use H11 bulbs, when I've ordered my headlight and foglights fromk JM Auto, they told me they use H1 bulbs. I didn't install them yet. Do I have to return them?

No no, I've placed the order with them on the phone, they told me H1 and they even told me where they were located in their webpage.

Damn!!! $ 85 plus another $ 65 for shipping (headlights plus foglights). Do you guys know if JM is a reliable company and they will send me the right ones at no shipping cost?

I would imagine that they would. Give them a call and tell them they made a mistake. I image at most they will make you pay the cost of shipping, the bulb cost should be the same, I can't see a simple exchange costing much.

Hope so. But still, the bulbs back and forth will be around $ 50-60

Get the 92 led ones, they will be the brightest, and you'll need all the light you can get, these aftermarket led bulbs are usually dimmer than the stock bulbs. I had the 60 led ones and you could barely tell they were on during the day, and get either 5k of you want a purer white or get the 6k of you want a little blue. Fair warning the 6k ones are closer to an 8k color and the 5k ones are closer to a 6k color.

same as changing any other bulb. Just test it before you reinstall your headlights because if you put them in backwards they won't work.
