It's a sponsorship with Sylvania. As for purchasing the bulbs, you can get at Pep Boys, autozone, checkers, or most likely another auto store in your area. I know Walmart sells a nice line of Sylvania as well

Can you inquire about late model fog light bulb upgrades in the future for us? I have one out and don't want to go to the dealer for a bulb.

Thanks!

I was looking at the Sylvania replacement bulbs at Wally World this evening just to have spares for tail/brake and head.

I started looking at the back of the packaging to compare the light output of the different bulbs. What I also found there was a surprise. It seems the expected bulb life on all these high output bulbs is maybe only a fourth of Sylvania's standard bulbs.

I'm sure there are benefits to the extra brightness and color but having to pay so much more for a bulb that won't last nearly as long made me decide to stick with stock.

My bulbs aren't led so I didn't need a equalizer or anything. Welcome to Mopar not liking lighting upgrades
