I think stock fogs are 5.5". You can usually find people selling them here on the boards or on Ebay. I think Catz makes a similar size, and so does PIAA. I put a set of 4.5" fogs in there from autozone.com, and they look slightly smaller but arent' tiny. The light pattern from them aren't great, but with my HID's they're completely unnecessary anyways. :)

Here is a thread with a pic of mine on. I have PIAAs which are alittle bit bigger than stock and I bought them off a guy on here who works for Truck Expressions and he got me a really good deal I think I paid like $180.00. They look nice.

Sure, I had pics up before, but took 'em down. They're back up on page 4 of my home page.

The fogs are Pilot's, and they're listed at 5 1/8", but they're smaller than that. They're part # PL-362W. Searching doesn't find them, and pasting a link doesn't either. You have to www.autozone.com and look under Shopping->Accessories->Lighting and electrical->fog lights->4". They are a spot beam, though, not a fog. They're the biggest lights I could find that have a "halo" ring around them like the newer BMW headlights. They look cool at night. :) I also put rock blocker yellow tinted film over them for the "european" look.

they are the 525 series it looks like you can get the 540 series same ones but a little smaller, they would probably fit a little better. here is the site with different lamps and measurements.........
