So I love my sport headlights and the PIAA 520 driving lights are awesome but I feel I should get a wide angle spot(offroad only) or at least a street legal fog lamp for the foggy ugly days/nights here on the west coast.
Any recommendations??

I ordered a set of foglights from www.danielsternlighting.com I just got them in and like the way they look. Not sure of how they actually light up yet, But I only heard good things about Daniel Stern.

Oops I forgot to mention I don't need to be street legal so would a good offroad spot light work better even if I have to mount it on top of the bumper. I have a buckstop bumper/bar so no factory slot for fogs just two 1.5" x 6"(approx.) slots on either side of the licence plate... I can't seem to get a photo up here but I should be able to get it in my gallery. Daniel stern's a good name from what I have heard, thanks!

How big of a pain was it to put those sport lights in? I heard you have to do a little bit of re-wiring cuz they are different bulbs..........is that right?

I want to put some of the sports on my truck ( my 99 1500 had them and LOVED THEM ) so just kinda curious.

Lightforce or Hella. Both can be had a Lordco.

The sports are on order. As far as cutting I heard the earlier trucks need cutting. Not sure on mine yet, as the sport option was available in 2001. Dodge might have made a universal inner fender that will work with and without sport models. Yes they will be an extra blub to wire in. Daniel Stern has a harness for wiring in sport lights into a non sport equipped truck. I'm really leaning that way for the wiring. This post in this thread, joefarmer has a PDF of what needs to be cut out.

I'm all for the Lightforce ones. If I can find a nice way to mount the 170's on a 2wd truck and not look corny, I'm getting those.

Hey gotlift01 the lights weren't a pain at all as I ordered a prebuilt harness from suvlights.com. It was a bit spendy but I have no wiring knowledge at all and even then it took like an hour or so to get things all nice and tidy in there(hooking up earths, batteries and relays....). It plugs right in to your existing harness and just bypasses the switch at dash with 4lo/4hi. The lamps I got from importvision and with stock bulbs a MASSIVE difference! Peripheral is improved the most. With my year truck I had to cut some body out to fit them. So really a saturday afternoon and your done if that!

Yup I think lightforce for me.... HID'S would be killer but that's a lot of money the 240's must be awesome but the 170's would probably be fine for dodging large animals I hope
That's why I have a buckstop
