I have had the PIAA Xtreme White Plus bulbs for 2 years and I love them. They are much brighter than stock and have a slight blue tint to them instead of the stock yellow.

Same here. I switched to them after years of importing bulbs from the UK.

I have tried them all. PIAA is the best. If you are interested in a set, let me know

I ran GE NightHawk bulbs for the first couple of years until one of them burned out - replaced those with Sylvania SilverStar Ultra bulbs a few months ago as couldn't find the GEs locally and didn't want to risk getting pulled over for a pain-in-the-a$$ "fixit" ticket - have found both to be much brighter and with better low- and high-beam range than the stock OE bulbs and they can usually be found for less than $35 for the pair.
If you do some searching here you'll find lots of info (and opinions) about swapping out your headlight (and other) bulbs. Good luck and welcome to the ROC.

I was referring to the Nighthawks and the price from legitimate online retailers - not eBay! Since I'm an Amazon Prime member (free 2-day shipping on all orders) I tend to order stuff like this from them as shipping is where many/most of the eBay sellers (and other onine resellers as well) usually get you!

I switched to Nighthawks when Amazon had a special on 2 pairs. They are brighter than the OEM's IMHO.

nope, the two have nothing to do with each other (except, of course, for the fact that both provide light)

If you ever do need to replaced your fog lights the Sylvania replacement bulb number is H11 (Standard) or H11XV.
