Default Lighting Question

I have a 2004 F150 extended cab. I have done some work with lighting before but while thinking about changing the fog lights I don't know what my options are. I have an XLT that came with factory fog lights so everything is wired already. I have halo LED headlights and I have a LED light bar mounted in the grille. I was thinking about putting 2 small 12 inch led light bars inside the bumper in place of the factory fog lights. Ive done some research and im pretty sure the factory fog lights use 45 watts per light. The led light bars ive found that would fit seem to take around 70 watts. Would the additional 25 watts do anything to the factory wires?

Thanks in advance for the help!!

9005 55w high beam bulbs are direct replacements for the '04-05 45w fog light bulbs. They should not be used in the '06+ round housings as they will overheat.

LED bars, LED bulbs, and HID bulbs will blind oncoming traffic and will be relegated to auxiliary use with the high beams.
