Fog lights

Does anyone know if the fog lights are LED or halogen? What is the size of the bulbs, H11?

I ordered full LED package and I really wanted to have the same color fog lights. If they are different I probably change them to morimoto xenon or LED to match the color.

If you have the lighting package they are LED fogs.

I am under impression that "Full LED Package" means just that.

I wasn't sure. I thought previous xenon lights had LEDs for the rings and the new full LED lights have the rings + hi/low beams.
I am glad if it includes fog lights!

Prior to the Full LED Lights, the corona rings were LED and the headlamps were xenon with 'halogen free-form foglights'

If you do not go with the Full LEDs that is what your configuration would be.

I believe that is incorrect. My F15 does NOT have the LED lighting package (ZLP) but it does have LED foglamps. This is clearly noted on the window sticker as well as the Pricing Guide as a "Standard" item. It is 5A1 "LED Fog Lights".
