Replacement Fog Lamp Confusion

So my fog lights finally took it's beating from the gravel / rocks and while shopping for fog lights. I couldn't help noticed a few eBey sellers.

Driver Passenger Sides FOG Light Lamps W H11 Halogen Bulbs FOR Nissan Infiniti | eBay

They advertise it as H11 but I know for a fact the Sedan's are H8. Will I have any fitment issues if I run with these off brands fog lamp housings. Will the plugs even fit into the bulbs?

The other option is bite the bullet and check out Rock Auto but I can't pass up the price of this consider how much of a beating these lenses take.

Any ideas? experiences?

Try the link above, bought those just not installed yet, but heard good reviews. As for the bulbs, same, just the notch thing is not identical, but I've read either worke

H8 bulb has the same connector as the H11 bulb.

But the H8 bulb is only 35 watts where as the H11 bulb is 55 watts. I'm not sure if you'll blow fuses using a 55 watt bulb in that circuit. Has anyone tried this?

Thanks for the responses,
I've looked at those but I'd rather have the freedom to choose what bulbs I put in there.
I msg'd the seller of those housings and he said there should be no fitment problems.

For $40 bucks I guess it can't really go wrong.
