Welcome to the Forum! :seeya
You can get #885 lamps (Wagner, Sylvania/Osram, etc.) from most auto parts stores (NAPA, Auto Zone, etc.)
It's a good upgrade!
Remember to re-aim your fogs to get the best illumination from the stock lamps or the 885's. :yesnod: :cheers:

Re: C5 FOGLIGHT UPGRADE (geoc)
oh, I don't know if this will save you a headache or not, but when I upgraded I had to use the little rubber seals from my old bulbs because the ones on the 50w are a little bit thicker - but be careful not to touch the glass of new bulb because the oil from your skin could cause the bulb to crack when it heats up. I don't know why they didnt put the 50w bulbs in em to begin with (well, I guess it they did that then everyone would be getting the 75w bulbs! :D )

The 885's are great upgrade for less than $20 and 10 minutes of your time. I don't think they're anywhere near the performance of the PIAA's, but it don't cost $170 either.
