    You talking about swapping out the OEM LED fog lights for the LED amber fog lights?

    You can do that aswell but for you set up above the bumper I think there were 6 in a row. I would stagger the beam pattern on those for better coverage rather than just a spot or flood. Floods have no cut off so in bad conditions they just cause glare and you can't see anything. Having an sae fog pattern works best to reduce glare regardless of the colour. Then have a driving pattern for a bit better throw in clearer conditions followed by some spots in the center for the best light throw down the road. Kind of like building your own combo beamed light bar but better

    It's still brand new, I just made 4,000 miles, I haven't put it through much yet.

    If you are running a stock intake, I highly suggest modding the fender liner like i did in this post to keep water out of the intake.
