Beware of the higher temp aftermarket bulbs.
They have been known to cause damage to
the OEM GT Fog Light Assemblies.

I actually just finally started seeing the 9145 Silverstars
in the AutoZones around here. $19.95 EACH.
I had to step back for that one.
How long have you had your Silverstars in your GT Fogs,
Howarmat and were they branded as 9145s or H10s?
Any problems with the black metal piece coming
loose in the Fog Housing?

Default Fogs

I went the other way. I bought a pair of Hoen Endurance yellow fog light bulbs (OE wattage). Wasn't sure how'd they would look with my 6000K HID headlights, but when I got them in, I love the look. They work noticably better in the fog & rain than the Silverstars I used to have in the fogs. I'm a happy camper.

i got a set of heads/ fogs xenon 8500 k and love them... work well but my high beams on the drivers side dont work. havent cared to put the oem bulbs back in to see if they work but whatever the aftermarket 8500s work well enough with fogs
