Are you looking to upgrade to a fog kit since you have a base prius?

I wouldn't consider them fogs really. My HIDs work better, and they really didn't help in snowy conditions either.

Factory fogs are useless. The HIDs outshine them, and have a good top cut-off, making them fine in fog as-is. You might look for some high intensity foglamps that could be mad eto fit your stock grilles after cutting out and perhaps reinforcing them. Then use the usual relay/fuse protections.

Only with the stock bulbs! Just add a 9006 HID kit to the factory, and I hear they're instantly useful. That's my plan... stay tuned.
