Is it for 2010 + or no? I haven't seen any fogs that would work for my 2010 because of the stupid computer.

What's the deal with the computer, when you attempt to change the fogs?

Incandescent lamps produce approximately 15 lumens per Watt. So how many Watts do our fogs produce?

They use a CAN-BUS network that supplies a pulse width modulated signal. Rather than a constant voltage signal it is actually a series of pulses. With incandesent bulbs there is an after glow when you remove power (think of turning off a regular light in your house) so you dont notice the pulses. This actually extends the life of your bulbs because they are not on constantly. But LED bulbs do not have an after glow and turn off immediatly. So the modulated signal is actually visiable as a flicker. The only way to correct it is to install inline capacitors to even out the voltage signal to the lights.
