I have 3k fogs and 6k headlights. I love the contrast, matching would just make you look like one bright spotlight coming down the road. If yours are like mine, they are more yellow in person than they appear in the photos. I used 3m tape to mount the ballast to my frame pretty much.

You have to get UNDER the fog for them to work.
You are really just illuminating the fog and making
it seem denser and harder to see thru...
We get bad fog here maybe once every couple of years. I don't really need "fog" lights. I wanted them for the contrast because they look good to me and better vision in bad precipitation.

I mounted my ballasts to the shock towers with our 3m double sided adhesive pads, but I probably will mount them correctly once I get a chance.

Where did you get your HIDs from?
