You looking for just the bulb numbers?

Stock bulb is Sylvania #899

You can replace them with #885, these are 50 watt bulbs and make a real improvement in the stock fogs for a few dollars. The stock bulbs are rated at 35 watts.

But, PIAA 1100x are not fog lights. They are Driving Lights, and serve a different purpose.
