For HID kit, the hid bulb will come in different bulb sizes and they come in either 35watts or 55watts.

Say you have a non Msport fog light which is to use H8 35 watts, then select the same for the HID kit. Do NOT go to 55 watts as it will burn the wiring & fog light housing.

If you have Msport fog light which uses H11 55 watts, you should still select HID kit with H11 35 watts (you may need a warning cancelling cable - pending of the hid kit you have chosen)

55watts HID kits may be okay as it draws the same wattage but it may have more heat produced. However, do remember that the initial draw when power up on the 55watts hID kit will put lot more stress on the lighting module thus causing the main computer to think possible electrical issue with the lighting and shut down the light module altogether.
