I run with 120 watt gold H3 bulbs in the fogs. The higher wattage combined with the gold signature makes it much easier to see in the fog and snow with the main headlights turned off completely. Some people warn of higher wattage bulbs burning up their wiring. I've had no problems with the stock foglight wiring (but I have replaced the main headlight wiring because the headlights will definitely fry with higher wattage bulbs).

I get all my bulbs from http://www.hioutputbulbs.com/
