These are the 580's on my pillar! I'm planing to put 520 fogs on my front grill guard (not in pic)
It will depend what you want for lights and how much you wanna spend. the 525's are more costly than the 520's and if you want Ion Crystal amber light for fogs go with the 520's

Dracattack - How do you like those 580s. I just ordered a set for my windshield after seeing your pic in another thread. I originally wanted the 580 w/ pencil lens but turns out they discontinued them so I was thinking bout 540's instead. Saw your pic and I went back to 580s and bought replacement pencil lenses. I'll do the swap when i get them this week.
As far as 520's vs 525's go, based on my in depth and obsessive research of PIAA lights make your choice based on how many lights you plan on adding. If you only want to add 1 or 2 sets then go with the 525's because you get more in one package.
If you are light freak like me go with some combos out of the 520 or 510 and 540 or 580, because you will be able to get more focused results and choice your lighting based on your activities and/or conditions.
I won't go into detail in this post on what I am planning for my rig in the next 2 weeks, but i will post a write up because it is going to be off-road light ridiculous.
Also for everyone's research pleasure....OCD to the next level

I've got 520s on the bumper. I like the lights but wish I had gone with the 525s for the dual capability.
Re: wiring. I used a pigtail fuse in the M9 slot in the fuse box (empty). That way I can use the lights with the High or Low beams. In addition, if I forget to shut them off they turn off when I shut off the ignition.
