Highway fog lights

Just received by ups Harley davidson highway
bars fog lights. In the two pictures that I saw they
mount the lights in the up position and in the other
it's showing down. What is the best way to mount them
on the bars for the best lighting of the road. I'm using them
along with the head light.
Thank you.

i would mount them hanging under highway bar. that way you cut through and see under the fog better. and i think they look funny mounter up

Fog lights? lower is better for actual fog. Whatever mount em like YOU want em

Fog lights shine a colored light. Usually yellow.

Driving/passing lights are clear, and shine a white light.

Like Vlade said.....

Fog:low

Driving: Mid to higher levels.
