Default Fog Lights replacement bulb

On an '86 is there a brighter bulb for the "fog" light? The ones in there now are only 27 watt. GM #9441728. I've gone on several web sites and can't seem to find anything brighter. Any help???

The standard bulb is a #880 at 27 watts.
The usual upgrade is to a #882 at 50 watts. This requires that the TAIL fuse be changed to 15A.
