 H11 Bulb mod for Fog Lights
I took two H11 bulbs (55w) and modded them to replace the H8 fog light bulbs (35w). All you have to do is file away the larger tab on the right side so its even on both sides, I used a small grinding accessory for the dremel tool and it took about two minutes per bulb to do.
I will let you know the difference when I test them at night......

He is in NY where the lights never go out. Or maybe he's related to Rip Van Winkle!

Ok if you want more brightness but you need to give a brake to your alternator, i suggest you to use HID light from http://www.kbcarstuff.com/
so you will be able to put hid 35 watts light on your main and fog light, and it will be brighter than original light. also you probably gone have code from computer if you raise the watts or melt the light connector?
I have these light on my RT-S and they work grate and no code from nanny.

I installed Nokya H8 comsic white 55 watts in mine, they duplicate the look of my HID headlights and my pia 5500K fog lights. Way more light when needed.

My first bulb failed so I called for a replacement and found out Nokya appears to be discontined. Instead I went with the cosmic white Piaas H8's. A bit more expensvie but they only draw 35 watts but claim to equal 70 watt bulbs in brightness. Not sure about that claim but the color is much cleaner and closer to the HID head lights. The only way to really get the right look will be to get a set of HIDs in there. The Piaas are brighter than stock so they help a bit.
Good luck
