I'm running a set of Luminics Halogen Yellow fogs. These are #9006 12V, 55W, 13 W. I notice these bulbs get very hot and my lenses are now warping. Has anyone else had a problem with these bulbs melting their fog light lenses?

Thanks

55W is too much...

What wattage should I use? Thanks for the help.

have or would you consider upgrading to HID's? If so its what I would suggest. Our vendor XenonDepot would be my suggestion. Pretty sure I read another member having the wires and harness melt from the 55w bulbs.

Your car is very picky with what bulbs or kits you use. Either way contact Steve @ XenonDepot and he can give you some options depending what your looking for.

use 35w instead 55w

35 watt 3000k kit does the job in mine.

55w should be standard for a halogen bulb. even the stock lexus bulbs are like that.

Never heard the melting of the housing but I know the Nokya yellow fogs I had before where way to hot, I think they were 75 watts, I never had a problem and they would steam when it rained. I had a wiring harness so it wouldn't melt the wiring. I will say Im glad I changed them cause they would scare me. yeah stock is 55W as he said ^

As others have said, HID kits FTW.

my bad guys I thought it was 35w? I still suggest going HID and losing the 55w aftermarket bulb.

any of the local vendors can supply you with an HID kit.
