Has anybody tried putting these bulbs in the fog lamps? The factory ones are 37watts. Will there be any problems? David

GMC2500HD 06-27-2005, 11:05 PM I put some 60w bulbs in mine and it turned the reflector inside the housing a light blue color from the heat.. I pulled them out after that. Don't think the housing is large enough to support and dissipate that kind of heat.. Good luck akdiesel 06-28-2005, 02:05 AM If you go any higher wattage it will melt the housing and the lens. This has been discussed befor. azhuntnut 06-28-2005, 02:58 PM Thanks guys for the info. David D/A Power 06-29-2005, 02:06 PM If you go any higher wattage it will melt the housing and the lens.

Kennedy 06-29-2005, 02:19 PM I run them in my 05. I only turn them on when I meet some SOB who is glaring me with his fog/driving lights on in clear weather. I almost ALWAYS get flashed the high beams when I do this as they are VERY obnoxious...
