    A few bolts are different.
    I would recommend getting a set of silver-star replacement bulbs. Wont break the bank and are nice and bright.

    Not that I know of. (LED)

    There may be an HID option somewhere out there but that will be getting into some pocket change for sure.

    Grammar on TW is nonexistent.

    OP if you're looking for hid talk to slimcubby or ddm

    I've installed slimcubby HIDs before, super easy.

    If you want the best get a projector retrofit :D !

    I wouldn't bother making the factory fog lights brighter--and second Wolfpack's post about not using HIDs.

    Fog lights are only meant to light up the first 30-40 ft in front of the truck, which the factory wattage bulb does. If you need more light, install some decent driving lights.
