ATV trail dents, many, many lights, 4-6 beer cans.

Can't see why you would, the purpose of fogs is for that low, wide beam pattern, HIDs won't make any difference in visibility, and only a marginal one (if that) in light output. If it's the aesthetics of having matching fogs and headlights, is it really worth the cleaner look to install them in the stock reflector housing and blind everyone with glare?

Some food for thought.
