Do you have any photos of this set-up illuminated at night?
Sounds like a bright solution. 
Also.. you mention "fog lights." I can only assume you mean "front and rear fog lights," as to my understanding the UrS'es were equipped with only a single rear foglight.

Just saying it stands out from the norm, which I like...
I think you did a good job with it, and although I'm not keen on your back lights in this pic, when you see them in person the smoked lights are much nicer...
Depending on where you live sometimes it doesn't take much to attract the police to check you out...
In any case, styling is subjective, to each his own, that's what it's all about... so enjoy!

Another solution, take the bulb holder out and cut the metal trace
feeding the outboard marker light with a Dremel tool. This is what I was going to do if I didn't do the swap. Or go to the dealer and pick up the 90q bulb holders for $20 ea.

But 21W of light from one rear fog is brighter than your two 5W fog conversion
Even better would be 2x21W=42W of rear fog if I wired up the passenger side fog!

Do it. Buy another fog light lamp holder. Remove break out on the..
right hand "fog" light. Install bulb and holder. Wire to existing fog running the wire in "American" wire loom (to protect it from abrasion and shorting.) (Naturally, you have to remove the trunk liner to do this. Beware of the black screws and the hidden (D'oh) clips).

A photo of my "more light" (anti-Ecode) solution is inside.
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/61424/morelite2.jpg"></center><p>This is with six 5 W filaments active. The fog 21 W filaments are connected to the signal and hazard circuit. I have disabled the "fog" function.
