Um, I don't know anything about the Gen2, but you do realize that the reasons you mention for not rotating them 90 degrees are only minor problems compared to the REAL problem with doing that, right? The foglights will be completely useless to you and completely obnoxious and dangerous to oncoming drivers, since the beam pattern would be vertical instead of horizontal. Better figure out a way to mount them the right way!
