Highly illegal and no, there aren't. If there are, they just use sleeves.

Why not have an LED pro on hidplanet.com make you some bulbs that use the stock plug with a cluster of ultra-bright red LEDs with heat shrinks?

Depends on how it's lit, either as CCFL bent rods or end-lit with LEDs.

i had red fog lights on my truck. that lasted all of 2 days and 3 tickets. i wouldnt recommend them seeing as technically, red and blue lights are reserved for emergency service vehicles

I'm thinking about doing "dark amber" halo CCFLs in my headlights/Roush fog lights.

I'd like to get as close to red as possible, without being illegal. "Dark Amber" most certainly isn't illegal.

Got any pics of what you are thinking of? I have never heard of "dark amber" halo CCFLs.

thats why i got my main lights, these are just for show and stuff

I think you would be better off tapping an led in there to make the reflector glow red, rather than actually use the fog bulb to output red light.
