4th Generation Fog light suggestions. Info please.

I hope this makes sense. It's late for me. Before you say it, I did search. I just didn't get all my questions answered. So....

1. I want a pair of fog lights that will take a minimal amount of drilling or cutting to get in place. If there are any that exist that can be securely placed in the bumper without drilling or cutting, perfect! Suggestions?

2. Almost every gen 4 I see with fogs has them placed in the top part of the bumper. Top set of holes. Is this done for safety reasons? I'd like mine closer to the ground, The bottom left and right holes, but might this be bad?

3. I don't want to hassle too much with the switch. Do you think it's possible to attach a stock gen 4 camry fog light switch to the aftermarket fog light wiring and get it to work?

4. I'd like any pics of your set up or switches. Thanks!

i searched for oem foglights but couldn't find any so i went with Streetglow's which arent the best brand but they're cheap. So i had to do drill 2 holes which wasn't that bad and i did it as low as i could on the bumper. It looked good after i did it and they stayed on tight to the bumper. Of course i also had to wire them and everything, which was the most annoying part. Then a few weeks after i installed them i hit a deer which took out my front bumper, hood and radiator. So when i get fog lights again im going to try and find oem's.

Wire them with the relay trigger to parking lamps and they will turn off every time the parking lamps are off, so you are not stranded with dead battery.

In hte lower (below bumper ) grille is the best place, just cut out one rib from each side.

well i got soem euro type of foglights off ebay went to and got them installed at a audio store, what they did was the put it on the lower grill which isnt bad, but i bearly notice that they are ON though the do give off extra light to the sides of the car...umm they only installed a switch so i turn them off adn on when needed and its tapped into the windshield fuse so they only turn on when key is in the ACC position

ABout foglights and which to use i have no idea but im looking in getting some projector type of foglights or some aftermarket ones from AutoZone which are small adn will fit oon the bumper grill
