And those look like the new LED fogs. How do they look? Do they add any extra lighting to your headlights?

Agree….I need to get busy with the wax……Posting pictures works best for me when I use Photo Bucket and insert image using the direct link…..upload from my computer never work either.

I have mine in the trunk with a couple of zip ties - will that work if I get pulled over?

tbh, i haven't had the need to put the fogs on... didn't know they were led's - but i have led headlights on my car and they are simply whiter than halogen/xenon and not necessarily brighter.
