Nice !
But i think the fog lights are aimed too high.
they should be aimed below the low beam.

they are above it, below it, and on the sides of it. Theses fogs broadcast such a large amount of light it's almost ridiculous.

I have to agree with the post above. Aim your fogs no higher than your low beams, perferably lower than the low beam. Those suckers are bright, even with the Ion bulb your going to have a lot coming back at you in the fog.

I can aim them down guys. They are adjustable you know . Also they seem to point up so much because I think the driveway incline makes them point up. My low beam levels are adjustable and that is all the way down.

I disagree... from the look of where the fogs are centered and where the hids are centered i think its perfact. it may be a little misleading shining them on a garage door.
then again you are posting this on a forum and here you are going to get mixed ideas from everyone

Just wanted to update the thread. It was really clear last night with the moon out. Hit some really dense fog and when a full moon is out it makes the fog so much worse. My new foglights let me drive as fast as I wanted to. The really cut fog so nicely. I actually didn't expect them to work this good.

So....mission-a-mother-fawking-complished!

PIAA included a switch with the kit that you pass through the firewall, wire it to an illum wire and mount it. I used and aligator connector to tap it into the cigarette lighter wire right above the fuse panel (yellow wire with green stripe IIRC)
