The lights are Hella fog lights - I bought them from www.tirerack.com - it was the cheapest place I could find for the set. The lights themselves were not cheap, but they were small and round and would fit into the tubing that I had. I was trying to avoid installing a light that was too big in that spot.
I had actually fooled around with a number of different lights including some regular work lights, some fog lights from a Ford Super Duty pickup, etc. and as I test fitted each of them I realized they were too big for the spot I wanted to put them in. The setup I went with works great - it does not contact the front tires at full lock and with the tractor on a slope (axle tilted) and they do not interfere with taking off the engine cover - which means the lights can stay attached and do not have to be removed when you have to get the cover off.
Here are the lights I used:
