I did the install yesterday. It took me about 3 hours, of which one hour was measuring, measuring, measuring, to get them positioned. There really isn't a perfect datum to use to get them positioned, so just be careful and measure twice and cut once. I also recommend making two templates so that you can visualize what they will look like on the MH and then use lots of painters tape to protect the paint. I drilled two holes first in the opposite corners of each installation rectangle for the fog lights to insert the jig saw blade. I used a thin metal blade to cut the fiberglass. It is messy. I tested each light for location and drilled pilot holes for the mounting screws using the actual fog light in place. I coated the back part of the fog light that sits against the MH body with silicon chalk.
As noted, the left and right wiring harnesses are zip tied to the cross beams of the chassis. They were labeled. I cut off the Connectors (see great pictures in earlier post) and soldered the wiring together, but replacement Connectors are an option. I then used heat shrink tubing and additional electrical tape to insulate. There should be enough length in the wiring that stress should be OK, but the driver's side wiring was shorter than the passenger's side. The lights work as advertised by pushing in on the headlight switch with the motor in the "on" position. A little Fog light indicator even appears on the dash when they are on. I have't tried them yet at night, but they are sure bright during the day.
This should be a great modification for anyone who drives at night and might run into fog.
