Fog lights

Many fog lights come with a wiring harness with relay fuse and switch --- and a wiring diagram.  Couple holes in bumper - put large washers either side to prevent fiberglass from cracking.  Wired to battery and other to switch under dash.  Might need to add ground wires to light is there aren't 2 different color wires to each already. Many DMVs (police) require fog lights to be on with other lights and off with high beams. You can do it yourself.

I use these type of fog light brackets, they clamp to the bumper brackets. So, nothing to drill.

I also attached a fog light wiring diagram, so you can see how easy this is. No need to hire someone. Even if your all thumbs, you should be able to handle this

While it's always hard to find total agreement, there are some recognized differences between fog and driving lights.  Fog lights usually cast a wider, shorter pattern of light, and are used, mainly at lower speeds, to penetrate the darkness without glareback that can occur with high beams or driving lights.  They can be left on when encountering oncoming traffic.

Driving lights are useful to lengthen the reach of the headlights, giving a longer, narrower pattern of light than fog lights.  They must be turned off when encountering oncoming traffic.  

BT- thanx for the bracket link. I've been looking for one reasonably priced. Was in the current process of making my own, but for the price I can't beat the one by eisparts. THanx Michael

BT- by the way, how is the quality of the brackets from eisparts.com. Its hard to see how the aluminum casting looks on their site. thanx

Undecided - go with one of each!  Just need separate wiring for each.  Fog lights are great for illuminating side of road (deer or folks walking).  An H4 non-sealed beam headlight up grade is good for improving distance vision.

Speaking of lights, do you guys know where we can get BA21 but in LED's for a marchall fog/driving lights? Ray

I actually dont own the ones from eisparts. I own this style and its heavy , cast and well made. I would buy them again
