hid = high intensity discharge
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-intensity_discharge_lamp
High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps include these types of electrical lamps: mercury vapor, metal halide (also HQI), high-pressure sodium, low-pressure sodium and less common, xenon short-arc lamps. The light-producing element of these lamp types is a well-stabilized arc discharge contained within a refractory envelope (arc tube) with wall loading in excess of 3 W/cm² (19.4 W/in.²).
Compared to fluorescent and incandescent lamps, HID lamps produce a much larger quantity of light in a relatively small package.

It looks like I need the non auto. The auto looks to be for Passats. And I need front fogs at least. No rear fogs as of now.

"Mercury Vapor Discharge produce large amounts of UV radiation and therefore need diffusers to block that radiation. In the last few years there have been several cases of faulty diffusers, causing people to suffer severe sunburn and Arc eye"-wikipedia..haha that would be cool if my HIDs would give people sunburn..someone cuts me off..turn on the HIDs..give the person sunburn, haha
