Fog light question?

I like the 4 fog light look vs the two.
Are they sold individually or as a pair and
do the dealer sell a 4 light version???
or are you allowed to have the 4 light versions?

thanks

Fog lights?

Might you be talking about driving lights?
There are many versions of these, from OEM duals to aftermarket quads etc.
Fog lights are pretty much just dual, as far as I can tell.

4 fog lights??? I have 2 front, 2 back, that equals 4, but I don't think that's what you mean...

Can't see the pics, but from your description those are driving lights. They're sold as a unit.

I, too, like the 4-light look vs. the 2-lights. In fact, I like the Hella black lights such as those seen on www.outmotoring.com here (I have seen them priced about 20% cheaper elsewhere, but the outmotoring site was where I originally saw them). I have no idea how they'd look in front of the grill above my stupid front-plate (Colorado), but from the photos I've seen, they do look sharp.

I'm not a DIY'er; where may I go to get something like this mounted an integrated into my auto in a similar fashion to the dealer-installed driving lights?

I like the location of those a lot, but couldn't acutally sling them under my grill like that because of Colorado's stupid requirement for having a front plate. :( Sharp looking lights, however.
