How exactly did you guys get the power to the Hella 500's, and can you still use your fog lights too? I may be interested in picking up a pair from Walmart if that's where they you can purchase them. Also, can you use the Hella 500's with your headlights and fog lights on?

yeah... there is great directions that come with the lights. you wire the relay to the battery,ground,switch,lights and then from the switch to a 12v power source,ground ( kit tells you to choose hibeam signal which means the hella's will only come on with the hibeams) i tapped into the parking lights so anytime the parking light are on the hellas will go on ( i have the option to turn them off manually too) some guys tap into a 12v source that comes on anytime the key is in the on position. its all preference. and walmart usually sells them for $45-$55....... if you need help post it here and we can help you but its pretty easy

well the hella 500s are advertised as driving lights but they have a very focused beam (i think that is what you mean by pencil beam) They arent very widespread but they still look very good and add alot of light even over the hibeams....
