Default Another fog light q?

I am looking to get some foglights. I won't be doing any hardcore wheeling, but I will do a little. So are there any lights you would recommend? I have a factory switch and still have my factory bumper if that helps. And will I need to buy anything to hold them down and fasten them (pretty much install them) If you have links that'd be awesome

I bought some 10 dollar ones from walmart and wired them up to the old fog light wires. This is how they look mounted on the bumper.

I put a nice set of PIAA's on my 99 limited, they are smaller then the factory holes, but still look good and really light up the road.....the factory lights are really over priced and aren't near as nice. I'm very happy with them so far.

I have the walmart special. Paid 50 for all six lights and upgraded to 100w bulbs from autozone for around 20$ all around. My 2 front driving lights are brighter than my high beams. If ur looking for cheap its the way to go.

Do you have covers on your lights right now? or is that a different lens?
