basically they will just pull you, i found if u were just nice they let u off, when i argued the toss that it had been foggy the copper got arssy back and fined me, aparently its illigal because they were below my no plate or some crap which i doubt is even true! and they cause an unesesary impairment of vision for oncoming drivers

just use them as fogs or they will find an excus to pull you for them

what about same brightness as headlights

add in 5watt bulbs and use as sidelights

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FOGS.

1 question if i put lower wattage bulbs in could the cops still fine me for drivin with them on even though they wont be as bright as fogs

OK THANX FOR THE HELP

even my Nova Sport ad all wiring in place and that was based on a 1.2 swing!

i doubt it would include a wiring kit, mine didnt only cost a tenner tho, u feed both the lives into the car then attach to a switch, u will see what i mean if u buy the kit as it has full instructions

Wiv Vauxhalls they usually have all the wiring in place to fit fogs heated seats etc etc i'd av a look see if ya can find em all ya usually need to do is add switch and relays in sockets provided/original locations

SO the 2 lives to the battery and just put a switch in somewhere.
the bumper im getting comes with fogs will that include the wiring kit

the wiring kit will have 2lives to run it when your lights are on, you wire one to the battery and one into the side lights circuit, as you want to use em seperate you just wire both lives from your switch to the battery, hope this helps anymore info u need u2u me

i want to have them so they are seperate from the main and side lights.
so do i just get a wiring kit and that will come with a switch that i can put somewhere

also need a relay to work the fogs! dont want your wires melting do u? thought not! get a relay from any good motor shop, then u can take a switch live from your side lights so that u can turn the fogs on when your sidelights are on! but entirely upto u, thats how im doin mine!
relay should have 4 pins
1 for permanent feed from battery, dont forget to get an inline fuse,
2 for your ground (earth)
3 for your ignition supply switch
4 to go to the fogs!
;) or as rollin posted buy a kit!

also its a £30 on the spot fine for driving wiv foglights on in non foggy conditions!
had 2 paid none :P

you need a wiring kit, a ring one will set u back bout £10 from ripspeed, u then follow instructions, u can wire them to run on their own or only to run when side/main driving lights are on, u will get a switch so u can turn them on and off from this.

If you wire them to your headlight the rozzers will probably pull you in the summer for having them on.

Buy a front foglight switch (scrappies will be LOADS cheaper than Vaux as there V.expensive) and wire them to that - don't know how to do this though - but sure others here will.

yo in about a week i am getting my new bumper (impact one), and it comes with fogs. how do u wire them up. can u just connect them to come on when u turn your headlights on or do u have to put a different switch in.

thanx dave
