Ideas for factory fog lights

Hey guys, what do you do for factory fog lights? The stock ones are so weak by comparison to headlights, and don't match the color at all. What are some of the things that you guys do for fog lights. I was thinking of doing yellow film, but the bulb is too dim. Is there a better bulb I can use that's not an HID conversion? I definitely want to do something in yellow, hyper white to match the headlights a bit better.

Interesting. I've ordered these yesterday, let's see how that will work out. A bit concerned with having that much wattage (100W) running though harness that usually takes 3rd of that (35W), but we'll see I guess.

If it was halogen I'd be concerned and wouldn't recommend it but being led and producing a lot less heat I wouldn't worry. And the wattage for the bulb seems to be calculated buy the amount of led at 5w each on the bulb. So theres 20 LEDs . I'm no electrician but I think its safe
