Default LED fog lights are the worth it

I've been looking at the new LED bullet fog lights for the 15 limited. At close to $600 bucks for the lights, wiring, switch and mounting brackets, I'm wondering if its worth the cost.
Has anyone installed these and was it that kind of money?

If they're the daymaker fog lights, I LOVE them. They really cast more light. I wired mine to a switch on the dash on my '14 FLHTK.


Between those, the daymaker spots and headlight, the CD Dynamic Ringz and the CD white LED fender tip, you can't miss my bike.

Installed on mine as well. I didn't rig an additional switch, instead just used the cable that splices into the passing lamp switch so I can flip them on and off using that if I choose to. I aimed mine up just a hair above level to the ground and they do make a huge different in the corners. Toughest part of the install was getting them adjusted to the way I wanted them to illuminate and getting all the cabling secured. The splice cable that you would use if you have a bike with passing lamps is WAY to long!

That's how my dealership originally did mine, even though I asked for a separate switch. I didn't like the "all or nothing" approach, and split them out while I was wiring up something else an and had things torn down.

Is that fender light plug and play like the turn signals?
