First off you need to make up your mind if you want foglights, spotlights, or driving lights?

Foglights are utterly useless, so buy any, the easiest to fit are the standard Subaru ones.

Spotlights tend to have a long range pencil beam, driving lights more like a high powered headlight, they are usually the ones to go for.

You can get them from Cibie, PIAA and Hella, the Hella 1000ff, if you can get it, fits to a simple bracket and can be had in Halogen H1 for about £140 per pair, and then upgraded to HID for about £60 more.

Wiring in is easy, but unless you fit foglights they need to be wired so that they go OFF when dipped headlights are chosen, and only come on with main beam.

Sets sometimes come up on ebay, complete with brackets, wiring etc. Clear plastic covers are also useful.

NOTE: Quite a few people sell the FOGlights on ebay etc and label them SPOTlights. They aren't.
Some Scoobs were fitted with DRIVING lights, the P1 and the RB%, for example, but any branded SUBARU are foglights and not worth the money.
