Lights lights and more lights

Good evening gents and ladies in this forum was curious what are the best brand of bulbs to use in our fog lights ie the brightest without going the hid route also are the parking lights the same as the map lights and courtsey lights size wise and is it easier to change them thru the wheels well or should I get an expert to take off the bumper and light assembly ? Just don't have the tools or I would do myself unless any of you are here in Washington to lend a hand sometime also one more thing any experience on here with the colored film that goes over the headlight and fog light is it any good or just a waist of money . Thanks by the way this has to be the best car forum I have seen yet a lot of knowledgeable people on here .

Here are some bulb codes which will answers your questions. You can find all of them in this thread Bulb Codes

Halogen fog light - H11
Parking light - 194
Map light - 194
Courtesy light - 194

Just remove the front bumper. All you need is a 10mm and a screw driver and it takes 15 minutes. It's really not difficult.

As for the vinyl film over the lights. That's more of a personal preference but it will definitely dim your lights depending on the tint.

The only hard part is the stupid screw in the side marker light. It can be tough to see.
