As you have found out, that won't work. HID lights take a lot more power.
The stock wiring and switched won't handle the power, which is why the fuse is popping. You need to install a relay, controlled by the stock light switch, and heavier wiring to deliver higher amperage to the new lights.

Yeah that's what I kinda thought off but a buddy
At my work has the same kit and same truck and
His fog lights work fine that's why I was wondering.
And do you know if #43 is a fuse for the fog lights?
