Which fog light bulb for ebay aftermarker kit?
I have a 2005 em2, and my one foglight burned out, the local auto stores could not give me what I think is the right bulb. My box says h11 35 watt, at the stores I only found h11 55 watt, and I could not find the 35 watt on ebay either, any suggestions? thankss!

You say you can't find 35w bulbs, right?
Buy a matching pair of whatever is available for sale.

I've read using to high a wattage can cause fires due to the higher draw. I don't want to question your knowledge here because you have proven yourself right so often in my experience but I have to know my own self

But even a 35w Halogen makes a lot of heat so I'd expect it wouldn't make a lot of difference upping to a 55w. (roughly 3 amp to 4.5 amp)

Did you ever actually remove one of the original bulbs and check out the numbers and markings on it? Carry that one into the parts store and match it up?
Convert to H11 LED instead? Low heat!
