Most Everyone seems to want to tinker with the fog lights, escpcially the 2016-2018 models. Then we get the complaints about moisture on the inside lenses after doing a switch out. Now to your question. My 2019 Fog Lights are plenty bright. If you screw with them you are upsetting the balance of light intensity and really offending the oncoming drivers with light glare. Seems like every Billy-Bob with fog lights has themilluminated when there is clearly no need for the lighting! Use them in the fog! Otherwise keep the light show off!

This.
It's mostly "I want to rice out my car with 5000K super white sunlight so I can blind everyone!"

The only - ONLY - time I'd ever switch is if I lived in, say, a foggy area and needed to SEE in the fog.
Which would be to swap with YELLOW light that didn't reflect from, say, the fog.

Aren't the only fog lights on the 2019/2020s, LEDs? Those are also only available now on the SR and Platinum (which they were standard equipment before...downgrade!) While I haven't looked too closely at them, I would assume there are not the plug/play version folks were replacing their halogens with in earlier model years. I believe they are factory designed modules now...so no easy swapping or color changes.
