Fog Light bulbs (01)

I have been looking around the forum at some of the CL, very nice stuff!!
I've noticed that many of them (mostly 03 models) have really nice bright foglight bulbs.
I was a little peeved with the sad little lights on my 01 CL, the look like a flashlight that's about to run out of battery.

Considering that 1 went out just last Friday, it's time to get a new set.
I'd really like some suggestions on what type or basically anything you can tell me is great. Right now all I know is, they are 12V and 5W bulbs. How much can the wiring harness take?

Thanks in advance.
Phil

How much are the foglights if purchased after getting the car?

I want the stock ones from Acura, not some aftermarket ones!

Quick question regarding your bulbs, I see they are 18W bulbs, that's quite a ramp up from the stock 5W. That won't cause overheating of the wiring or something?

Sweet car btw!

i don't like that design for the cooling system. I found one that uses the AC compressor to further cool down the lightbulbs..

That and a "Type R" sticker should get me close to an 11sec. Quarter mile! sweet!!

I can't wait to put my 24" spinners on and hit the track!


Ok, back to reality. Thanks for the light bulb replacement stuff!
