997 Fog Lights
Has anyone upgraded their halogen fog lights with a 55w light? I see they have those available, and are installed in Europe, but didn't know if they would melt the light.

To Martidamm, Now I am getting confused regarding the LED's. For the fogs, what number of LED's and what kind did you use?
