Take a look at Scott's excellent write up here. It's a how-to for installing H11 Hoen 55Ws Xenomatch. I've not done this so can't comment on the ease of install or effectiveness of the bulb. US Spec too I would think.

They are H11s.

You have to carefully flex the grille to get it out and then remove the whole foglight unit (Torx screws, can't remember the size) and then you can swap the bulb.

PIAA Extreme White Plus H11 bulbs are fantastic in the fogs. I put them in - much much brighter than originals.

Do remember though that lower colour temperature tends to be better for fog however! Probably not why we've changed them tho... ;)
