Just replaced mine a couple of days ago......go to O'reilly auto parts and get the Sylvania Silver Stars.....You'll love them.
About $20.00 each.

Use #885 bulbs in your fog lights. They are 50 watts verses stock 35 watts. Also re-aim them.
I have used this setup for 2 years, I always use foglights with low beams, no problems. I have blown one bulb in past 2 years.

Changing the bulb is tough. What all must be removed to put the PIAAs in?
