Long time visitor, first time poster! I can't tell you guys how many times I've come here looking for help and found exactly what I needed. Hopefully I'm posting in the right section! (Sorry if I messed up!)
On to my question, I'm looking to install some aftermarket fogs and mount them below the front bumper but in front of the valence. My biggest concern, is trying to find what lights are appropriate to mount down below without breaking the bank for OEM fogs. Just looking to add some extra light and some flair to an otherwise stock XLT!
I know the differences between the types of lights, just not the legality, which is another aspect of my question. I'm currently looking at a pair of 55w driving lights, because I love the shape and grills. I know driving lights are supposed to come on only with your high-beams. Could you run, say a 35w bulb, mount them low, angle them down and use them for fogs? Or do I have to buy actual fog lamps. My X will be in Wisconsin for the next couple of months if state legislation matters. I know I'm allowed to have "fog or inclement weather lamps", but curious if that means what the box says, how the mounted lights are being used, or if its based on the bulbs.
If anyone's got picture of their fogs mounted below I'd love to see them!
Thanks in advance for any and all advice in advance!
