    I really like the idea of the LEDs, but the square look still kinda bugs me. I'm kinda looking towards the HIDs... Opinions please! Thanx!

    The first one says "fog driving light" which is very confusing. And the Hella says "off road driving light," which isn't so clear either. I don't want two sets of driving lights, but if the pattrns differ enough, and the visibility gets better, then I will be happy! :)

    ok so those 2 lights are basically the same thing... they arent really 'fog' lights. they are more of a supplemental driving light. the "driving" pattern throws a pattern similar to that of your head lights, however with these being hid and the one being 55 watts.... its almost having high beams down there... i could be completely wrong but these are probably not what you are looking for as far as a 'fog' light.

    Which is why I went with the PIAA 510.

    I later added a set of CIBIE Airport 35's with the amber lens mounted down low. Really work well in the fog and snow.
