Default Does anyone have driving lights on their car yet?

I was thinking about putting driving lights where the fogs would go. I would either put em flush like the fog lights (so i would cut the bottom grill), or i would put them behind the bottom grill so you couldn't really see them until they were turned on. I was wondering if anyone had done either of these ideas. If so pics please.

Default grill

I,am thinking about trying the TC grill, fog light kit.The grill shape is the same as the xb.
I don,t know if it will be a perfect match.

I put in some Hella fogs from Super Autobacs, used all the factory wiring and cut the grill so they would fit, check it out:



I think it came out pretty good

It was worth doing and much cheaper then the factory fogs (like only $80). If I did it again I would remove the bumper as it would have saved so much time when finding the factory mounting holes for lights. Now if I can only get an OEM switch...

Dang I guess I should have read the whole page LOL I wonder if it's because it won't fit the mounting hole or if it's because of the wiring. If it's wiring it would still work for me. I may have to send an email asking them

That switch is about 1/8" taller than the hole.
