Small Projector Lights that really work?

[Lawrence C Leung]

Chris, 

I think you (and the rest of us whom can't afford Euros) are stuck. FWIW,
real fogs aren't worth too much above say 45 MPH, and driving lights are
useless, at least in metro areas, as you never end up using them. AFAIK,
the 550XLs are the only auxiliary headlamps out there, and they really
are huge. I wouldn't even consider mounting them above the bumper (where
they'd be safer) 'cuz they'd probably block too much air from our punny
IC's and radiators.
