Default Fog lights on 944 T

Is it possible to replace the bulbs in my fog lights with brighter bulbs?

If your bulbs are old it is very possible that a new bulb of the same wattage would be brighter. You could also go to higher wattage bulbs, but you would probably need to upgrade your wiring to get any real improvement over a new bulb of the original wattage.

yeah, i'm thinking i would need a whole different fixture to change the fog lights to driving lights, it would just have to fit where the fog lights sit now.

You can put in 100 watt bulbs but only turn them on while actually driving. Never turn them on while sitting - they will melt yo ****. You dont need to change the fixture - pep boys/ auto zone -sylvania 100 watt bulbs (exact replacements) - 6$ apiece. Just plug them in and drive fast.
