SilverStar bulbs.
I just installed Sylvania SilverStar bulbs in place of my stock fog lights. One word. WOW! They are twice as bright as the stock headlights.
Best bang for the buck and I recommend them to everyone.

The silverstar bulbs for the fog lights are just what blitzen said. #9005 bulbs for about $35 bucks. Installation takes about 3 mins. Just reach behind the bumper to the back of the fog light. You can reach it from each wheel well. Un screw the bulbs, replace and your done. That easy.

Following your advice, I went to wall mart today and bought the 9005's for the fog lights. AWESOME! I already have the XV's as my headlights and this just adds tp the brightness. Very significant improvement.

I just bought and installed the 9005s Silverstars for my fog lights.
The 9005s are not direct replacements for the 9145. The tabs are not perfectly aligned but still fit. Second the stockers are 42W and the SS are 65W, a 50% increase in power.
Very easy to see now though.
thanks for the advice guys.
