You can have as many offroad lights as you want--they must be covered with an opaque cover when on the road (and for inspection of course). Your fogs must go off when your high beams come on, and they have to be below the level of the headlights. No (uncovered) headlamp type lights (ie. driving lights) are authorized above the headlight level. Covered off road lights aren't considered "lights" as they are and should be covered at all times when on roadways. They're for off road use only. I think the same is true for aux backup lights--would have to be covered during normal use. (not positive about this as I haven't fully researched it yet.)

A set up like this is fine in VA (note the opaque Hella covers on the off road lights)

What kind/make are the lights you currently have? Bars? Rounds? Etc.

You can put cardboard over them then tape them. It's creative and it works. You could also find a 3d print shop to see what they could work up for you.
