**REVISED** Looked at my fogs yesterday. Damn bulbs look like they have BLISTERED and now there's a nice black dot on the bottom of the reflector. Seems the 80 watters are too much for vapor-chromed plastic. Headlights have the same ultra-thin coating (I know because I opened one up and learned the hard way). I think I'll try Sylvania SilverStars down there now (stock wattage).

Special Note: Fog bulbs are 9006 (has 90-degree bend for socket). This is not the same as the 9006 & 9005 in the headlights; they are 9006XS & 9005XS and do not have the bend. I tried experimenting with interchanging them and, well, it's not worth the hassle.
