ive also got 80mm narva lamps mounted in the front mouth of mine (see avatar pic)

not really hard to install, but a bit of mucking around with relays and switches if you want to do it right.

just an idea - if you decide that you want them hooked into your park lamp circuit (as you mentioned they were fog lights) as well as independently switched (important) a good place to splice into the park lamp circuit is from the old stereo illumination plug (assuming aftermarket CD player). this may sound stupid, but rmember if you want a switch mounted in the cabin, this wire will have to come inside at some stage, so starting it in there saves a bit of time and effort.

the pic in my signature that looks a similar position to yours is photoshopped, my avatar pic (that is also in my sig) is the real ones
