Fog Light Question

Sup fellas,

I just picked up a 99 CL. I'm interested in adding fogs. I'm probably going to pick up these fog lights: http://www.eliteone.com/catz/xsl.htm

How do you think they'll look?
Is there a DIY guide on wiring fog lights?
Is there a place to mount them?
I've been looking around for an acura CL fog light switch and can't find one. Can i use one from a different car? If so, which cars?

Here's a pic of my CL.

You can use the fog switch from a 94-97 accord, the fog light kit should come with all the wiring you need

Cool, thanks.
Will any other buttons work? I'm thinking about wiring them to go on with the headlights if that's possible.

Is there a guide on installing fog lights floating around somewhere?

the fogs should be already partially prewired. I can confirm that I plugged in my fog light switch(right behind the knock out switch opposite the hazards) in when I was installing my head unit and the switch does indeed light up. The wiring should go from the interior to the firewall. with the aftermarket wire harness you could prob wire it up to there. I'm still trying to figure out my plans, i hate wiring
