Installed fogs yesterday morning, went out last night to a nice dark flat road and aimed them... holy **** what a difference it makes to street signs! I can see them 5 miles down the road now! hhahaaha
And one further, got my LCA's and Panhard bar last week as well from Founders, have to put those in this weekend! Woo Hoo!!!

If you're lighting up street signs that far away then think of what you're doing to people's eyes in oncoming traffic

Actually they are aimed really low. I have to pull myself up out of my seat to see the "hot spot" on the road. I think that because they sit so far back in the front fascia that there is a lot of light emitting from the entire housing. I sure can see street signs down the road. The glass in the paint on those things really reflect the light back from the HID's! Also, road marking that I could barely see before just pop like a ***** now.
I am going to get the low/hi combo from the older trucks from LMC (*I think they are called) to do them all.

They are pretty nice, I still need to aim my fogs and my headlights as they are down way too low. But for the money they look great and perform great, no flashes from other drivers.

Here's mine. I just turned them on but they match the switchbacks perfectly. They are 5k from DDM with the LCM housings. Until I do the retrofit they'll stay like that. Had an issue getting the highs to work so just lows and fogs for now.

880 is just the bulb size. Buy the hid kit in 880 for the fogs, it's a direct plug and play.

Sweet, thanks. One last question. I ordered both high and low beams from LMC Trucks, and I went to order the HID's from DDM Tuning....turns out, I know nothing about HID's. lol First, wattage...I'm thinking 35w for the fog lights, and 55w for the low and highs? Color....I'm thinking 8000k should work. Finally, would I need any of the extras, like the harness, adapter cables, or mounting brackets?

yea, thatd be good. theres alot of things to make it easier, that if I explained wouldnt make much sense without pics. Fogs are easy. Just pop the little plastic clips the pull the bumper down, un bolt fogs, unplug bulbs. put in hids, and balast, and plug it into the existing harness. secure balasts.
the headlights try and show how you can mount everything under the headlight itself. makes for a cleaner install.
