secondary fog/driving lamps

I've been wanting fog lights that are not tied to the headlights for a while. I thought about the KP module to be able to use the fog lights independently but after reading on what was invovled to wire that in I passed.

I had a set of little cyber white lights laying around that I picked up on close out somewhere for like $20. Long weekend, I had some time to waste so I gave them a shot.

What do you think of this placement? it's hard to tell from the pic but they are actually mounted behind the lower grills. I haven't wired them yet so I have no shots of them lit.

here's an idea - do one fog light only and place it in the middle where the plastic covers the tow hook - if that was easy to do i would do it overnight

It would be very easy to do but would look stupid.

That's about as far apart as they can go with how I have them mounted. There are obstructions any further out.

I'm not quite sold on the idea yet either. Until they are lit the jury is out.

Too close to the centerline. Need to push them farther outward.
