Quote me where I said that.
No, they are not fog lights. Fog lights have a diffused lens, or are a projector. Neither of which his lights have. They are driving lights. THESE are fog lights:
Hella 500

Hella 550
Note the diffused lens.
Here are the same Hella's in the driving beam. (Clear lens)


Fog lights do exist, but a good pair can rarely be found at an auto parts store.
I'm going out right now to root out a suspension problem I'm having. Ill take detailed pictures of my brackets for you. Here are some pictures that kinda show you for now:
What you are looking for on the upper lights are those black arms, and on the bottom, the white arms.

looks nice. where did you get the metal arms? hardware store random places etc? and what did you mean about making my grill match the lights? i like the look and how everything is placed and this is most defiantly how i want to mount my lights (behind grill for now, will buy round ones later)

What I meant about the lights, is those little grilles on the front of the light should be cut off. They already sit behind your truck's grille, you don't need them, and will decrease light output further.
If you look at the pic you will see that they are pretty much the same height as the headlights. If you measure your headlight height , that will answer that question.
But I already did it for you, because I'm sitting here looking at the front of mine in the garage!
6" And I would say the rectangle ones are about 8" x 3 1/2 or 3 3/4

I made them. All they are are 1/8 inch flat stock I got at home depot, then bent and bolted together.
