Sylvania Xtravision bulbs.

You can get them at Wallmart for 12 bucks. They are the best stock Halogen bulb out for the 9004 system.

PIAA makes good H3 bulbs for your fogs, their Super White 3800K bulb has a nice clean white light.

hey Tom, i just recently opted for the xtravision/PIAA super white platinum H3. which works awesome. however, i noticed that my pass side fog light lense cracked. i touched the lense and it is extremely hot under normal short term usage. do you think it was the heat factor that cracked it? have you heard or experienced such thing? or maybe it was just coincidence and a rock maybe hit it and cracked it. anyway, a new pair of fogs,cause i guess they only come in pairs. costs about 170.00 new.. no luck at the junks yet.

Sorry about your lense. The PIAA H3's are stock 55 watt bulbs. I don't think they would geneate any excessive heat to crack your lense.

On another note, I read a thread not to long ago (this week) about a Nissan dealer that sold individual fogs really cheap. You should be able to buy just one side. We buy single pieces at the body shop for cars, doesn't make sense that they would only sell sets. Shop around, call Courtesy Nissan and see what they offer you.

Good luck!
