Has anyone installed an aftermarket fog light bulbs?
I want to replace the halogen bulbs for the fog lights. I heard H8 GP Thunder 7500K 35W is a pretty good brand. Is it hard to remove and install it yourself?

I installed the Lumiled ZES (from Amazon) and couldn't be more pleased. They were quite easy to install.

So long as they're 35w they won't be any brighter than stock. I replaced mine with 55w H11 and they're much better. They do require trimming of the base with a Dremel tool to match the H8 flange. The wiring will handle the extra load.
As for LED, I've yet to find any that don't require coding. Many claim to be plug and play, but the reviews say otherwise. |

I've been running those same ones for 2.5yrs now and very happy w/ them. I know it says 7500k but they're a perfect match to the stock xenons. Very easy to install.
