Recomendations for Fog Lights on a 2012 G650GS?

My wife rides a 2012 G650GS and from the front it only has the single headlight config. I would like to get some LED Fog Lights on the front of this bike so that she is more noticeable on the road. I am 100% sure that it has helped me be more noticeable to oncoming traffic, besides being safer when out at night. My bikes came with kits - her bike is previously owned and did not. We're hours from a BMW Dealership and I'd like to do something on my own if possible. I've spent a few hours googling solutions and by the end of it I'm no closer to a decision than when I started. What do you have that works + easy to install? Take care & Thanks - B
 
I put a set of Rigid spots on my R100GS with the yellow fog covers.
Very effective and very noticeable.

The lens comes off in seconds.

ADVMonster LED lights

Check out this site: http://stores.advmonster.com/led-lights/

There's a good deal on the Model 30's right now, $40 each. If you're looking for conspicuity lighting, you can't go wrong. We've put them on 3 of our bikes over the past few years and they've worked great.

+1 on ADVMonster. Just put a model 30 (spot) and a model 40 (flood) on my R1200GS, running both through the ADVMonster dimmer. Seems to work well - visibility while on low and nice nighttime illumination when on high. I'd still like to have a low and high separate from the bikes low and high.

These lights seem good quality and a great value in comparison to others that are hundreds more. Time will tell - I've only ridden with them for a couple days and a few hundred miles.
 
Installation of Rigid LED lights on F650GS Dakar or Sertao

I installed the Rigid lights on my Dakar and later moved them along with the Touratech engine guards over to the 2013 Sertao without modifications

For a look at the custom brackets I made as well as complete photos views of the install check out my Smugmug photo gallery

I included before and after light pattern photos as well.
