    Nope.
    H11 is 55w, h16 is 19w.

    Check you fog bulb. You have Sport so you may have h16.
    I swapped my h16 fog lights housing for h11 55 w bulb housing and put philips h11 x-tremevision +100. Big difference.
    I'm running GE+130 in headlights

    Hmm, the bulbs I’m running don’t seem to get super hot. Warm, yes but not anything excessive that may lead to housing damage. Good info though!

    I just checked the factory bulbs I pulled out, they are H11. So I guess I don’t have to worry, then I checked the manual and it says there are two types of fogs, wide and normal. One takes H11 and narrow takes H16.

    I have 2016 TRD O/R Canadian model. My truck had H16 bulbs from the factory. I used the Philips Yellow Led's which work for H11 or H16's. I am liking them so far.

    Did you like these yellow fogs? My driver side just died after 9 years. Not looking to spend too much just yet.
    Thanks.

    The yellows I’m running really help over the stock bulbs. It makes a nice contrast on the road at night or in bad weather conditions, highly recommend.

    Hey where did you buy these fogs? I bought some Alla yellow led from Amazon thinking they would be somewhat bright but definitely not great.
