fog lights - 35watt 6,000K. don't get 55watt for the fogs because it will hear up so much it will melt your fog light housing, happened to my buds 99
I thought the newer tricks used a h13/9008 series bulb

I actually solved it when i was trouble shooting what was wrong with the whole system, i switched the bulbs, so the passenger went to the driver side and driver to passenger, and they just worked when i did that, no clue as to why, but made my day

Dude, did you read any of this thread before posting? I'm not bashing you, but honestly.

H13 heads
(has been H13 since 2004)

9140 fogs
(same since 2007)

Best bet is a set of bi-xenon's. You get what you pay for too, cheap out and you may regret it.

Or Retro a pair of projectors. That's the "proper" and "legal" way. Either way best of luck.

Do your research FIRST.
