I had read some of the Daniel Stern articles, but I went back and reviewed, just to make sure.
Good call on checking the laws of the state. Believe it or not, South Carolina allows not more than one driving lamp and not more than one passing lamp to be mounted. They allow two fog lamps, but I would think that a car with only one "passing" lamp would look kind of funny, besides not being very effective.
However, the reading a bit from everyone has made me decide against getting them. Most additional lights, except for apparently the "passing" lamps, are meant to be used with the high beams alone, and I'm just looking for stuff to augment the low beams. The high beams work well enough.
Perhaps this summer I'll take a look at the whole headlight setup to see if I'm up to the task of a conversion. If all you did was drill some holes and everything fit in pretty easily (minimum of "filler" material and splicing wires; you've made it sound easy, so I've bookmarked relevant threads), then perhaps I'll try to grab two headlight mounts off an old Brick. I'd love to get some Cibie headlights in there. (Why can't they make something that fits in the US assembly? They could make a killing off of the Brickboard alone!) For now, I'll just drive carefully at night.
