You could do that, but only H7 is H7.

I just picked up 2 sets from DDM tuning (the raptor kits), I've read decent reviews. Care to share any.

I picked up h11 fog bulbs and d2s bulbs for my retro fits.

that is what I am currently running. I also have 3000K h11 and 4500K h7 on my smart car as well as 2 other kits that I bought for my buddy and father and all are still runnung strong! When I bought my D2S kit they forgot the cables but got that all fixed up the next day, customs service was quick and awesome!!

all ballasts have the same connections, 2 ignitors that go to the bulb and 1 ovalish connector that goes to the cars harness. maybe someone else could chime in but i am pretty sure all ballast are the same.
