    Update to List Foglamp bulbs

    Fog lights/driving lights 5202 AKA - (H16, 9009)

    I ordered 2 sets from the only company that makes the aftermarkets fog lamp bulbs for the G8GT. PUTCO http://store.summitracing.com/egnsea...5&autoview=sku

    I got them today and will put them in this weekend. Gonna be a PITA, gotta take off front wheels and pull back the shrouds to get to the bulbs. Unless you know a better way.

    A few members have installed the Putnum bulbs and they melted the foglight housing. Don't do it!

    Don't tell me this. Is Putnum meaning PUTCO?

    I have not been able to find a source for the Sylvania bulbs for the low beams. The XV on the number confuses everyone and Sylvania's website leaves a lot to be desired. Anyone purchasing the H11XV bulbs somewhere?
