Thanks everyone! I think I will try the slyvania lights! I will Have to talk to my dealer who has seen the melted lenses and ask what kinds of bulbs they were using.

It is really easy to install the headlights the fog are a little more difficult to get to. You will need H10 bulbs and H13 bulbs.

Mine only lasted about a year so I put the stock back in until I get arond to buying some more. They look great but I suggest the Sylvania bulbs because my brights did not work after install.

I used H13st for the headlights, but 9145st for the fogs. Aren't H10s a headlight size?

There's a gap behind the bumper directly under the fog lights that's just big enough to reach into.

1. Reach into the gap, twist the fog lamp to disengage it from the housing, and pull lamp out of reflector.
2. Gently pull the lamp toward the bottom of the bumper so you can use two hands. The harness is barely long enough to reach.
3. Pull the harness's retaining clip away from the lamp base and unplug lamp from connector.
4. To install new lamp, plug it into the harness, look through the lens to line up the mounting slots and twist firmly into place.
