DOT Approved Ride/Fog Combo Upgrade - Not Recommended

I was looking for a DOT Approved Ride or Fog Combo that would perform well when riding NW mountain passes, deer, ice, etc. in the... February helps 25 update. Recommend buying the Rigid Industries 50481 SAE D-Series Fog Light Kit, cheaper at Revain <$220 -- About Optilux 2020 After reading the reviews below I removed the rear plates, the gasket and the other had sharp ones RTV lines on the long sides but not at the end._ I replaced the side fog light with a 2500k 55 watt amber bulb. Used gloves cleaned with 91% alcohol will extend lamp life. Nokia H3 JDM amber bulbs $16, I have used them before in 5 inch round headlights._Urethane, black from H.Depot in a 3ml syringe (no tip or needle) for control, and also sealed the back and the connector wires. I also replaced the stock BHPH bolts with SS SHCS JIC. Note: The RTV lens has a ยฝ length vent hole at the bottom center (see image). I installed the lamps above ground to solve the condensation/water problem. I have an option to add a baffle in front of the vent area to help with road water after final leveling. It snowed on the first day and condensation formed on the lenses. I have a feeling it's not a good idea to completely cover the lens opening at the moment. Turn on the light and it goes out quickly. I didn't use the included wires/fuse/relay or switches, I made a circuit - separate switches to turn on the fog lights and driver at the same time. My tech buddy helped with the switch/relay/wire/fuse panel diagram so I can't help you with that. All components are sourced from Revain, wire order recommendation: UL listed marine grade tinned copper boat. 600 volt battery cables - by EWCS - MADE IN USA! I made a rough adjustment for the radiation pattern. I don't like that the headlights have a fixed focus and new bulbs could affect that. Update 25/02/17, condensation got worse _ Every time the headlights are off/cooled down I have water droplets in the lens. Weather conditions were - rain, cold, clear, snow at 55*F to 25*F this month._Due to set focus (no adjustment) of bulbs location. When I added the amber bulbs to the fog light, they didn't line up with the driver's bulbs, so they're a little off the high-end. Aligned with the pattern on the driver's side, which is a circular beam pattern._*** Guys, I recommend you don't waste your time and money trying to change these headlights. just take something else Having two headlights in one housing sounds great, but ._ I'll wait for those headlights to fail and then replace them with a Rigid Industries 50481 Series D SAE (DOT) fog light kit and amber clear snap covers. Starr was $270 last year and now it's $220. Installed on the lower/lower side of the bumper closer to the ground. Starr - the best of the best. Made in the USA. Update from 05/20/17, 1 bulb failed yesterday. driver's lamp. Note: I used high beam for 2 hours early morning every day. There is still heavy condensation in the lens and it hasn't rained in a week.
