Theres a couple guys on here running them. The ones I put on my mustang were terrible (impossible to aim, light output terrible, etc) so I wont bother with them anymore.

I got ones similar, theres a few diffrent styles you can choose from and personaly, i like mine the best, CCFL HAlO not much diffrent than yours, the halo rings around the lights are a wicked blue, looks deadly at night if you just have them on, but those ones your looking at are a white halo i believe, the LED bar on top, and the lights at the bottem are diffrent than mine cant say what they look like in person.. this is a cool deal with the free fog lights but chances are it will be more of a PITA to mount than its worth... anyways I love my CCFL halo projecters, i just really wanna find out how to change the bulbs to hids without any issues.. as if its not hard enough with the stock lights

I remember blown287 was running those and he seemed to like them.
and i know a guy on youtube (briansmobile1) that was running a similar type on his 1999 era ram 2500 and they have been on his truck for a couple years

I would try them.

They are similar, a little difficult to aim but I love them and the different look. Bought mine on ebay from K2, $180.

I am thinking about grabbing the K2 kit off ebay as well. He has one that includes Factory Fogs w/ all needed relays and swittches. Shipped for $187. I dont necessarily believe Mods like this are needed, but I want Fogs and my standard chrome head lights do truly blow in the looks department.

Here is the link and does anyone know how big a Pain in the a-s-s installing those fogs can be?

Depends, if your bumper is already cut for them, then it's easy. If you have to cut the openings, then it's a little bigger of a job. Then if you don't already have the fogs then you'll have to visit a dealer to have them Starscan the computer to activate. You'll also need a switch.
