Thats the worst sentence i've read in a long time. Swapping out a higher wattage bulb into a housing not made for it is nota good idea (as you know know). Do a search, there are alot of people who have done this.

Those foglights are $$$. Check out ebay for a used one. And don't screw around with an unfamiliar foglight that you are putting into a housing that it wasn't designed for. You will MELT it!!!
