The DiodeDynamics option, while they look to be high quality lights, doesn't wire to a dash switch at all; all the wiring is in the engine compartment and they use press-fit T-splice connectors right at the headlight connections. For us in heavy salt-use areas, that's a virtual guarantee for eventual corrosion, and a non-starter. Secondly, their harness has the fog lights on, constantly, whenever the headlights are on. That's not how fog lights are supposed to work.

I wish the DiodeDynamics kit included the switch (maybe OEM, too, like the great bezels they include?) and associated wiring for the switch. If it did, that's the kit I'd install. The Winjet should be fine, once I figure out where to grab power for the switch.
