If your talking about getting halogen bulbs these are the ones i have. http://www.stangmods.com/Mustang-hea...bs-p/00432.htm
Heres the matching foglight bulbs.

They make a big difference compared to stock. But i would recommend hid kit. its about 100x better lighting.

If your just wanting to change the bulbs go to walmart and pick up some sylvania silverstars. I got those for my headlamps and fog lamps. They're bright as hell.

honeslty man save your money, 50 bucks for silver stars or 250 for HID's, they are well worth it and transferable to your next vehicle... HID FTW
