Dunno if the '85 is the same as the '88 (rectangular lights), but I just swapped out my 9004 bulbs for two new Sylvania ClearBlue bulbs and have noticed some improvement in night visibility. Not to mention the additional 'blue-eyed' effect!!

BTW, I just picked up a fog light switch from a junkyard. Came out of a Quantum, I think. Anyways - the thing just snapped right into the blank panel slot. Cool! Does anyone know if the rear lights on the US vehicles can be modded to support the Euro-style fog lights?
