Oh, yeah. I know all about double insulation. I don't like being shocked. At all. :-) ALL wires are routed through appropriate loom/ conduit and secured tightly, and whenever it passes through a metal hole, rubber grommets will be used. All final terminations are at an standard junction box. I'll put a 5A fuse in the box for good measure. By my math, this should present a total load of 440 watts equaling 3.82 amps).
The lights are only going to be used for a maximum of 10-15 minutes at a time, with 30 minutes to an hour rest between cycles. And they will only be used like that about once a month.
I was also thinking about making a 'burn out' indicator out by paralleling a 1156 bulb (21 watts) at each fog lamp. That way, if one goes out, it will probably take the 1156 with it, and it will be obvious which one died. Or I might get lucky and catch it before the indicator dies, a distinct possibility!
I was going to use 12 gauge wire, but now I am thinking of going to 16 or even 18 gauge to further increase the resistance. The total wire run will be about 70'. You think that will be OK, or should I stick to the 12?
I want to thank everyone who responded to my original post. All input is very appreciated, and will be put to good use!
