Mine is a 986. I ordered the kit with 5000K bulbs. Light output is slightly less than the 4300K factory temperature, but not really noticeable.

To clarify, the base of the projector is threaded. It goes through the hole in the lens assembly where the H7 bulb was mounted. From what I've read, minor work needs to be done with a Dremel so the projector will sit flat in the hole, then a nut is tightened on the threads to hold the projector in place. This is nothing compared to the work needed to mount FX or similar OEM projectors.

Think I changed the topic from fogs to headlights, inadvertently. Sorry!
