They're not fogs, they're DRLs and can't handle the wattage of fog lamps. They're plastic and will get ruined due to the heat.

wtf?

I think what he was trying to say is that on the Canadian 240's, they come stock with DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS that go in the spots right underneath the turn signals. These lamps you can find on http://www.pdm-racing.com (look under misc) you cannot upgrade the bulbs as they don't even use h3's to begin with, and you could possibly melt the plastic. Your best shot is to take some measurements of where you want to place them and order either Piaa, Hella, Raybrig or Catz auxilary lamps. Those are the best lights on the market--the Hella being the cheapest of the four.

As you can see in my sig pic, i have fog lights in the ducts, its a TIGHT fit, but it can be done if you have a 90 degree extension for your drill to make the holes. Anyhow, it's easier to mount them in the center air dam, but PLEASE don't be a moron and put them close together driving lights need to be mounted as far apart as possible in order to get the best distribution of light on the road.

Hope that was helpful.
