H11 50W Foglilght bulbs..Anyone tried replacing them with the H9 65W?

I would imagine this would be a great improvement over stock. If it does not plug right in, you might have to file down a small amount of plastic on the light socket to get it to work, but probably worth it.

H11 on my monte carlo is the low beams
H9 on my monte is

Anyone?

i don't really know why you would... i'm sure that if the bulbs are similar that you COULD... but if it's much brighter... it kinda kills the point of the fog lamps? doesn't it?

also, usually, the high/low beam this is more due to the position of the bulb in the housing, not the actual power of the bulb. so, a higher wattage bulb would most likely just be hotter, maybe "whiter" but not throw any more light.
