Default Question about fog light mounts

I'm planning to bu another set of fog lights. I have a rugged ridge xhd bumper with the hoop over. I want to mount the fog lights onto the hoop over. Will the rugged ridge overrider clamps work? They say they are universal. Just wanna make sure..thanks!

If you are trying to do it with a stock fogs it will not work they use 4 screws to screww into place to get the proper adjustment. If you plan on doing an aftermarket fog kit you can buy claps like these made by warn that should hold your lights in place.

Mounting fog lights that high up will make them useless in inclement weather.

Run them under the bar and wide so winch is still accessible and also as said before fogs are more useful closer to the ground

I have a rugged ridge bumper so the fogs will be lower with the stock fogs. As for the lights on the bar, they're gonna be driving lights. Both are PIAA's.

Ok. Your starting to sound better. But, to much of a good thing is actually bad. Why do you need two sets of fogs.

Well I have my headlights which are bi xenon HID's. my low beam is 8000k and my high beam is halogen white. I also have my stock fog lights from the factory. I currently have my 520 ATF for off road. They are extreme white and they are hahah. I need a set that does better for me for the weather and partially for off road also. Only two sets of PIAA's. I don't need anything else. The more the light, the better.
