    So I have the 2012 tacoma that does not have any fog lights but is pre-wired for fogs. My question is, before I purchase the oem fogs(camry or sienna kit) should I consider the Rigid Duallys? What would be better?

    Would the Rigid Duallys fit in the stock location?
    Is that where you want the fogs?
    Do you plan on getting an aftermarket bumper at some point?

    Not likely getting an aftermarket bumper. But I may consider mounting the duallys flush mount or in the grill. I am wondering about brightness/visibility.

    Well I don't know about the Rigid Duallys but I can drive at night without my head lights on (just tried it on a deserted stretch of freeway one night to see what it looked like) with my pre '12 stock fogs.

    Duallys kind of suck. Stock fogs are excellent. Dually D2 are pretty good too. I would not waste money on old style Dually... they sre less light than an old school 55 watt halogen and have poor light distribution IMO. Kind of like a LED flashlight more than an automotive light.
