The OEM fog lights improve lighting greatly. I felt my '02 Accord EX's headlights were a let-down after owning a 95 Ford Probe SE for a few years (had fog-lights and of course the flip-up headlights are mounted high). I bought the OEM foglight kit from http://www.handaaccessories.com and installed them myself (took about an hour or so). That did the trick for me... and it doesn't blind other drivers.
I think a set of driving lights like PIAA offers (the 80w-120w variety) would offer him greater lighting out past his car. The OEM fogs only kind of illuminate the general area infront of the car, which is good for bad weather but not for a dark mountain road.
I would definetly check out PIAA's fog lights at
www.piaa.com and see if there's anything in your price range that you like..just remember to shut them off on the highway and on the streets, as they are gonna blind the hell out of people
