Fog lights mounted that high do nothing in fog except blind you. The idea is
to get light below the level of your eye with the reflection off the fog.

Anyone who would flash that much light at an oncoming car is asking for a

intelligent decisions as to where he is on the road.  Especially with the
fog lights, however modified that highly placed on your car.
