Default fog light wattage question
On my 98 GS 300, what is the bulb wattage on the foglights? I had to rewire them so was wondering whaat kind of wire to use. I just bought a fog light kit that has all the wiring but am wondering if has the correct gauge wires for our foglights. Thanks.

I'm not positive, but I think they're 55watts.
