Default New H4 conversion Kit....which fogs should I go with?

I just purchased the Hella H4 conversion kit from rallylights. I also got the xenon hella premium 80/100 bulbs with them.

What kind of fogs lights or bulbs should I go with to match?

Any thoughts?

How has the conversion worked out for you? Better compared to stock? Easy install? Any problems encountered?
Sorry for all the questions, I do lots of homework before making a purchase.

I try and do my homework as well. Unfortunately I haven't installed them yet. They are actually still in the mail. I know for a fact though that the conversion kit will be way better than stock. Stock lights suck. What I have been reading is that there won't be so much wasted light with the new kit. Plus, I am sure I am running around 55w bulbs right now and I purchased the 80/100w H4 bulbs.

I'm going a different route. I actually ordered some Nokya Hyper Yellow (H16 9009 5202) Foglight Bulbs. Plug that into Google and the first link is where I bought them from. Should be here this week I hope.

Yellow lights are supposed to better in the fog and dust than a white light. They also light up reflective signs way down the road. But they wouldnt mach your headlights...

With my new headlights I really don't think I would need anymore white light going forward...it's alright if they don't match...I'm 44 and can't match my clothes

Installation completed just a bit ago. I have more pictures in one of my profile albums.

Overall all I'm pleased with them and they were only $25!

I had to do some modifications to a tab or two as they didn't line up with the original fog light housing. Basically used a wire wheel on my dremel to ground them off.

BTW those are the new Hella E-code headlights I just installed a week ago...100/80 xenon premium blue. I dig 'em.
