Exclamation Fog Light question

I have and old set of blazer fog lights, the neat projector style and I wanted to know if I can replace the bulb for a brighter one? Thing is, I dont know what kind of buld to get as ive never seen this bulb before. Hopefully yall can help, I'll provide pics and the #'s on it. I would like to know how many watts are these and where can I get replacements? preferably better ones(brighter,more intense)?

On the back it reads: solite 894 128v37 5w

google "894 bulb", should give you plenty of replacement/upgrade options

I found 3 bulbs, one was 37.5watts, the other is 55watts, and the last is 100watts. I'm confident the 55watt bulb would work just fine, But would it be ok to try the 100watt bulb? They are for a pair of blazer fogs on my off roader and they apear to be of metal construction projector lamps. Are the 100's too much? should I just stick with the 55s? thanks!

The 100 watt bulb could get real hot for the case and cause it to melt.

The brightest I'd go is the 55 watt, and if I'm not mistaken, most aftermarket driving lights are a 55 watt bulb.
