I've had 6 900's and have used both Bosch and Hella. Bosch is good, but Hella 550s have been a little more durable and have a better lighting pattern (IMHO) and fit my stock brackets too ('92T). round/square? round would only fit well (and look right) above the bumper... fog lights are more effective when mounted lower, so i'd go square. Yellow or white is a personal preference, although some say yellow has less glare during snowy times...
whichever you choose, my strongest recommendation is to get lens protectors! all the foglights i've had seem to get pitted from sand and salt, which diffuses the light beam pattern and makes them less effective. Clear Adhesive film (there is a sponsor here, i think) applied when the lenses are new is money well spent!
