Auxilary Lights

I'm very interested in putting auxilary lights in front of my car. Or extra driving lights. I'm using the stock front bumper and etc. Can i see some picks of how some of you others have them mounted? i'm thinking right below and beside the license plate where the bumper cover is held on. Here's the lights i'm looking at:

Do they really help you see at night in any of your opinions?

Adds a lot of close-in fill IMO, though mine are more for fog use (gets foggy round here many mornings) where having teh light down low is an advantage.

Mine help tons, but then my headlights suck. I need to get some H4 housings.

If you get the amber ones they work really well for fog.

Yup, that it the awesome, old-school look. I have the Mode 1 on order along with the Hella light kit. I do not care of blue or other modern-looking lights as they are not period correct and remind me of Auto Zone modified civics.

I totally agree with you. ^ Every time I see blue lights I think of a "rich" person car or a "ricer". Once you get your Mode 1, make a project thread and keep us updated, I'd like to see it.
