as far as the bulbs go....try the silverstars....their pretty bright i can run just my fog lights at night...

and when you replace them just raise the head lights and reach down turn the old bulb and pull it out

(My post on pg2 has plenty of links.)

Here is my setup:

Housings or bulbs?

The bulb is # 880. Almost all auto parts stores and some other places (like Walmart) carry it.

The stock housing is a little more difficult to get in that although it is available at various online sites, each stock housing costs double the cost of an entire aftermarket kit and the stock housings have worse build quality and materials.

That is one unit for $70. The units I have were $60 for the pair. There are better setups available too.
