who has aftermarket fogs on their car?

i recently acquired a stock fog light switch and while the motor is out i wanted to put some fog lights and the required wiring in the car. no luck searching, so if anyone running aftermarket fogs could give me their thoughts/recommendations and possibly post a pic i would really appreciate it.
thanks,
andy

No offense, but why?!? The openings in the bumpers are small enough as it is without blocking off air flow to the oil cooler(s) or the radiator/intercooler.... plus you get to look like a ricer Honda as a bonus.

Personal opinions aside, if you just have to have a set of fog lights, they traditionally come with their own installation instructions which includes a wiring diagram. It's pretty straight forward... mount them to something solid, and wire up the relay to turn them on.

I have them, but without the factory switch, they look very nice. I'll take a pic or two if I get the time.

They light up the road very clearly.....the fogs alone are better than my stock headlights.

I have factory but replace the lights with a temp cheap pair but they put out a lot more light. I plan to get some quality low profile lights, and I'm sure they do little in fouling up air flow.

Wire them to a parking lights, two wires, just splice them in.

Who the hell drives around with fogs on and not the parking lights, or viceaversa?

And it really looks like *** to see a car at night with some lights on, then not the fogs...looks like you need to replace a bulb or two.

And if an occasion comes up where you want no light, then you inherantly can't use your parking lights.

Duh...
