Yes:

Projector = H11
Reflector = HB4 /9006

The different fitment means not only different way the bulb fits the fog light bulb holder but also a different electrical connector

Sorry I meant the foglamp unit - Is it possibly to do a direct swap for a projector fog lamp unit if I've got reflectors fitted at the moment i.e. the mounting points in the same position etc? Is there an adaptor which allows for a HB4 to H11 connection if the foglamp units can be changed over too?

Thanks

IIRC the Gti fogs are different to other dogs so make sure you get the right fogs for the bumper you have but they will fit in the same location.
You will need an adaptor for the connections though

I didn't want to cut anything so searched eBay till I found this.....

Copy and paste above and it'll show up cost about £10 to my door from USA - I bought from username integra9006hid. Genuine superseal waterproof connectors and well made bit of kit - plug and play  :happy2:

Awesome thanks!

Had a look on autobulbs and HID-Direct where they have some LED versions which aren't apparently road legal.... Im guessing its because of the reflector unit though :/.

Not sure whether its better and safer to just upgrade the halogen bulbs in there at the moment maybe....
