Couldn't get them from the dealer, and want to install good factory looking
fog lights/driving lights. Any suggestions?

Courtesy Nissan lists a kit for a 2007 Xterra. See http://tinyurl.com/2lxhwe
.

One thing, promise me you won't show your a.s by running them all the
time. They are FOG LIGHTS, not "I AM A SPECIAL COOL DUDE LIGHTS." See

Just saw this reply Ed, sorry. My own personal preference is to have them
both switchable on(when I want) as well as only on with high beams. IOW,
have them wired so I can force them to be on with low beam, but normal
operation would have them dim when I dim the lights.

I got the OEM fog lights from e-bay for my 07 Frontier. Less than $50
each. I got a switch from earlier Nissan that fits the dash
knock-out. I got a generic relay kit from e-bay and laid out the
circuit myself. Much cheaper that way.

I agree with the last poster. They are fog lights, aim them properly
and use them only in the fog, rain and snow, not to blind every other
poor sob on the road.

I know I asked the question about fog lights, but I guess to a degree, I
consider them somewhat "driving" lights too, to help when the high beams are
on. That's why I'd like them to be switchable as well as auto-dimming. Not
sure if I'll be able to hook them up that way or not.

On a '74 charger(many years ago now of course*g*), I had both fog and
driving lights, hooked up that way. Both were manually controlled as well
as fogs were switched on with low beam, off with high, and yes, aimed
correctly ;) Driving lights were on with high and off with low...
